Transform URLs in help popup into clickable links #388

If a slot has a description that contains a URL, it would be nice if that URL was rendered as a clickable link when it is shown in the help popup. For example:

@pkalita-lbl would it be possible to get this done Monday or Tuesday of next week as a fix?

I'm working on https://github.com/microbiomedata/nmdc-server/issues/945 right now. Is this also a high priority?

Sounds like good functionality. Only thought was whether one might want to also allow [title](url) style markup links.

pkalita-lbl commented 1 year ago

If we go that far should we just support markdown in general? There are plenty of performant, off-the-shelf parsers out there.

Closing issue due to #405, which converts [title](url) to HTML anchors, e-mail addresses to mailto:<email>, and free-standing non-Markdown links in our out of parens (<url>) to HTML anchors, using markdown-it and linkify-it to include sanitation.
