> Determines whether a value is a WHATWG [`URL`](https://mdn.io/URL).
Works cross-realm/iframe and despite `Symbol.toStringTag`.
## Installation
[Node.js](https://nodejs.org) `>= 8` is required. To install, type this at the command line:
```shell
npm install isurl
```
## Usage
```js
const isURL = require('isurl');
isURL('http://domain/'); //-> false
isURL(new URL('http://domain/')); //-> true
```
Optionally, acceptance can be extended to incomplete `URL` implementations that lack `origin`, `searchParams` and `toJSON` properties (which are common in many modern web browsers):
```js
const url = new URL('http://domain/?query');
console.log(url.searchParams); //-> undefined
isURL.lenient(url); //-> true
```
