func linkLabelExecuteLink(linkLabel: LinkLabel, text: String, result: NSTextCheckingResult) -> Void {
if result.resultType.contains(.Link) {
let pattern = "[A-Z0-9a-z._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\\.[A-Za-z]+"
if NSPredicate(format: "SELF MATCHES '\(pattern)'").evaluateWithObject(text) {
UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string: "mailto:" + text)!)
return
}
let httpText = !text.hasPrefix("http://") && !text.hasPrefix("https://") ? "http://" + text : text
guard let url = NSURL(string: httpText) else { return }
UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(url)
}
else if result.resultType.contains(.PhoneNumber) {
let telURLString = "tel:" + text
UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string: telURLString)!)
}
}
func linkAttributeForLinkLabel(linkLabel: LinkLabel, checkingType: NSTextCheckingType) -> [String: AnyObject] {
return [
NSForegroundColorAttributeName: linkLabel.tintColor,
