Addressable

A URI parsing module inspired by Rubys Addressable gem.

Install

It's available on npm, so a simple npm install addressable should be enough.

Usage

var addressable = require("addressable");

// Get a proper URI var uri = addressable.parse("http://google.com/search?q=hello+world#anchor-it")

// Can do files too! addressable.parse("/var/log/system.log")

// Find all those nasty URIs in a text var uris = addressable.extract(text);

// Or just replace them! addressable.extract(text,function(uri){ return ""+uri.host+"" })

// But...what do you actually get from an URI? uri.href // => 'http://google.com/search?q=hello+world#anchor-it' (the source it was parsed from) uri.scheme // => 'http' uri.userinfo // => null uri.username // => null uri.password // => null uri.host // => 'google.com' uri.port // => 80 uri.pathname // => '/search' uri.path // => '/search?q=hello+world' uri.querystring // => 'q=hello+world' uri.query // => { q: 'hello world' } uri.fragment // => 'anchor-it' uri.search // => '?q=hello+world' uri.authority // => 'google.com' uri.toString() // => 'http://google.com/search?q=hello+world#anchor-it' uri.isAbsolute()// => true uri.isRelative()// => false

History

0.3.3

• [Fix] Support for nodes built-in URL module. It can now be passed in to both addressable.format() and addressable.parse().

0.3.2

• [Fix] Now it's possible to pass an addressable.URI into addressable.parse() which should return a new URI copy of the first one.

0.3.1

• [Fix] uri.path is now also a setter.

0.3.0

• [Feature] What was previously uri.path is now uri.pathname and uri.path is now essentially uri.pathname + uri.search to match the HTTP.request API in Node 0.3.6+.

0.2.2

• [Fix] Fixed the package.json.

0.2.1

• [Fix] uri.userinfo is now null when it was not found in the URI instead of "".

0.2.0

• [Feature] Added addressable.extract(). Extract or replace URIs from a text.

0.1.0

• Intial implementation.

Thanks to

• John Gruber, for his wonderful URL RegEx which is used in the URI.extract()-method.
