A library for parsing URLs.
## Why?
`url-parse` provides some schemes unavailable in other url parsing crates (i.e. `sftp`, `ssh`, `s3`) and enables the user to specify custom schemes before parsing.
## Usage
### Basic
Create a new parser object with `Parser::new()`. You can then use `parser.parse(url)` which will return a public `Url` parsed structure back.
Its fields are then directly accessible:
```rust
let input = "https://user:pass@www.example.co.uk:443/blog/article/search?docid=720&hl=en#dayone";
let result = Parser::new(None).parse(input).unwrap();
assert_eq!(
result,
Url {
scheme: Some("https".to_string()),
user_pass: (Some("user".to_string()), Some("pass".to_string())),
subdomain: Some("www".to_string()),
domain: Some("example.co".to_string()),
top_level_domain: Some("uk".to_string()),
port: Some(443),
path: Some(vec![
"blog".to_string(),
"article".to_string(),
"search".to_string(),
]),
query: Some("docid=720&hl=en#dayone".to_string()),
anchor: Some("dayone".to_string()),
}
)
```
### Custom schemes
Passing a `Some(HashMap)` to `Parser::new()` can be used to create custom schemes.
The hashmap is a key,value pair representing the scheme name (key) to a port and description mapping (value).
```rust
let input = "myschema://user:pass@example.co.uk/path/to/file.txt";
let mut myport_mappings = HashMap::new();
myport_mappings.insert("myschema", (8888, "My custom schema"));
let result = Parser::new(Some(myport_mappings)).parse(input).unwrap();
assert_eq!(
result,
Url {
scheme: Some("myschema".to_string()),
user_pass: (Some("user".to_string()), Some("pass".to_string())),
subdomain: Some("www".to_string()),
domain: Some("example.co".to_string()),
top_level_domain: Some("uk".to_string()),
port: Some(8888),
path: Some(vec![
"path".to_string(),
"to".to_string(),
"file.txt".to_string(),
]),
query: None,
anchor: None,
}
);
```
