Get plaintext of URL passed in message #177

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

When passing a URL in a message slack will pass an encoded version <http://myurl.com|myurl.com> wondering if there is a way to only get the myurl.com part of that string and pass that to a method?

thanks in advance

You can use a regular expression to extract it.
