Regular expression to extract Facebook URL's inc vanity

I am trying to extract Facebook URL's from 3 sites using PHP and a regular expression but it's not working for me. I can use regex101 https://regex101.com/r/zA2sD8/1 to match but i can't get this out in PHP using preg_match. Here is my regex so far:

Try the following pattern:

((?:https?://)?(?:www\.)?facebook\.com\S*)

of course, you'll have to use a different delimiter than / (like @ or # etc.).

You'll also need to use preg_match_all instead of preg_match to imitate the global matching (g flag).
