What is parse-path?

The parse-path npm package is a utility for parsing URLs and file paths into their constituent parts. It can handle a variety of path formats and provides a structured way to access different components of a path.

What are parse-path's main functionalities?

Parse URL

This feature allows you to parse a URL into its components such as protocol, host, port, pathname, query, and hash.

const parsePath = require('parse-path');
const parsedUrl = parsePath('https://example.com:8080/path/name?query=string#hash');
console.log(parsedUrl);

Parse File Path

This feature allows you to parse a file path into its components such as root, dir, base, ext, and name.

const parsePath = require('parse-path');
const parsedFilePath = parsePath('/home/user/docs/file.txt');
console.log(parsedFilePath);

Handle Different Path Formats

This feature allows you to handle different path formats, including Windows-style paths, and parse them into their components.

const parsePath = require('parse-path');
const parsedPath = parsePath('C:\Users\user\docs\file.txt');
console.log(parsedPath);
