            mention.
:info_url - Used to link to "more info" when someone mentions @mention
            or @mentioned.
:username_pattern - Used to provide a custom regular expression to
                    identify usernames

MentionPatterns =

Hash that contains all of the mention patterns used by the pipeline

Hash.new do |hash, key|
  hash[key] = /
    (?:^|\W)                    # beginning of string or non-word char
    @((?>#{key}))  # @username
    (?!\/)                      # without a trailing slash

      \.+$|                     # dots at end of line
      [^0-9a-zA-Z_.]|           # non-word character except dot
      $                         # end of line
    )
  /ix

UsernamePattern =

Default pattern used to extract usernames from text. The value can be overriden by providing the username_pattern variable in the context.

/[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]*/
MentionLogins =

List of username logins that, when mentioned, link to the blog post about @mentions instead of triggering a real mention.
