Media and quote tweet urls in tweet text #27

I guess media urls and quote tweet urls should be hidden in tweet text...somehow twitter-text includes those in the AutoLinkWithJSON method....

issue

I believe tweets have an an indeces property somewhere inside media objects that you can use to strip these out. I actually wrote this functionality in python for another project

def replace_str_indeces(text, indeces):
    return '{}{}'.format(text[:indeces[0]], text[indeces[1]+1:])

def strip_txt_urls(tweet):
    """
    remove urls + media links from the main txt body
    eg: Lol!!!! https://twimg.com/thing_23131.jpg => Lol!!!!
    """
    media = tweet.get('entities', {}).get('media', [])
    urls = tweet.get('entities', {}).get('urls', [])
    for media_str in (media + urls):
        tweet['full_text'] = replace_str_indeces(tweet['full_text'], media_str['indices'])

    return tweet['full_text']

this should alleviate the media picture links https://github.com/mannynotfound/react-tweet/commit/a6141ddc6ff130b3804a3f0b1e5c8f7ac2c9e353
