How to extract multiple URL from string

I have string like this - "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-hohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"

In here I have three urls, how can i separate them and push them into an array. the url's can be start with http or https or directly from www or any valid url. I want the output like -

[
"https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-ho",
"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm",
"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"
]

For some reason I had to convert a String with multiple URLS to an Array. So I used a regex to handle the urls and .match() method for creating an Array.

let urls = '[https://website.com/slug, https://website.com/other-slug]';

function convertUrlStringToArray(urls) {
    let expression = /\b(https?:\/\/\S*\b)/g;
    let regex = new RegExp(expression);

    return urls.match(regex);
}

Output an Array: [ 'https://website.com/slug', 'https://website.com/other-slug' ]

One more way add to space or other delimiter before http and split string:

const str = "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-hohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm";
const result = str.replace(/http/g, ' $&').split(' ');
// result ["", "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-ho", "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm", "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"]

const http = string.split("http://").map(val => { return "http://"+val }).slice(1)
const https = string.split("https://").map(val => { return "https://"+val }).slice(1)
const array = [...http, ...https]
console.log(array)

var urls = "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-hohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"
urls = urls.split("https://").map(val => { return "https://"+val }).slice(1)
console.log(urls);

try this one it will help to split https value in the string

You can do that with the following code in Python:

links_str = "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-hohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"

links = ["http"+str(link) for link in links_str.split("http")][1:]

Maybe you can try to do something like this in JavaSript.

Try this:

var t = "https://gaana.com/song/dil-chahte-hohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWnFCGXjjS0&list=PLs1-UdHIwbo5p-8wh740E7CRhIoKq5APm"
t = t.split("http").map(x => { return "http"+x }).slice(1)

First split the string on "http", which gives you an array. Then append the http to each element of the string. Unfortunately you end up with the first element in the array being "http" that's why you need to slice to remove it.
