## Install

```bash
$ npm install is-url-http --save
```

## Usage

```js
const isUrlHttp = require('is-url-http')

isUrlHttp('https://kikobeats.com') // ==> true
isUrlHttp('https://kikobeats.com') // ==> true
isUrlHttp('mailto://kiko@beats.com') // ==> false
isUrlHttp('callto:192.168.103.77+type=ip') // ==> false
```

If you need to run the package in a browser environment, you can save some bytes using the lightweight version:

```js
const isUrlHttp = require('is-url-http/lightweight')

isUrlHttp('https://kikobeats.com') // ==> true
isUrlHttp('https://kikobeats.com') // ==> true
isUrlHttp('mailto://kiko@beats.com') // ==> false
isUrlHttp('callto:192.168.103.77+type=ip') // ==> false
```
