Package description
The is-absolute-url npm package is used to check if a given URL is an absolute URL. This can be particularly useful in web development and applications where URL validation or manipulation is required.
Check if a URL is absolute
This feature allows developers to determine if a URL string is an absolute URL. It returns true for URLs that include a protocol and domain name, and false for relative URLs or paths.
const isAbsoluteUrl = require('is-absolute-url');
console.log(isAbsoluteUrl('https://example.com')); // true
console.log(isAbsoluteUrl('/my/path')); // false
The 'is-url' package checks if a string is a URL. It is similar to 'is-absolute-url' but does not specifically focus on absolute URLs, making it broader in scope but less specialized for checking absolute URLs.
The 'valid-url' package provides methods to validate URLs and check if they are absolute. It offers more comprehensive URL validation features compared to 'is-absolute-url', which strictly checks for absolute URLs.
