Support extended URL and deep link schemes in regex matcher -Update v…

validators.handler.js updated

This PR updates the regex used for URL/deep link validation to handle a wider range of schemes, including:

• Standard web protocols: http://, https://, ftp://
• Custom app deep links: e.g. com.example.app://action=authorization&hash=testKey&user=1
• Non-slash schemes: e.g. mailto:[email protected], file:/Users/me/file.txt

The new regex is:

^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9.+-]*:(\/\/)?[^\s]+

---

Motivation

Previously, the regex excluded common schemes (http, https, ftp) and only partially supported custom protocols. This caused valid links such as iOS deep links or mailto: addresses to be rejected.

By expanding the pattern:

• Developers can reliably validate both standard URLs and deep links.
• Edge cases like dotted custom schemes (com.example.app) and plus/minus variants (custom+scheme-1) are fully supported.
• Optional // handling ensures compatibility with schemes that do not use slashes.

Examples

✅ Now valid:

• http://example.com
• https://secure.com
• ftp://fileserver
• com.exaple.app://action=authorization&hash=testKey&user=1
• mailto:[email protected]
• file:/Users/me/file.txt

❌ Still invalid:

• ://oops
• justastring
• 123abc://test

---

Testing

• Added unit tests for all supported schemes and edge cases.
• Confirmed backwards compatibility for existing deep links.
