parse-path

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);

Other packages similar to parse-path

url-parse

The url-parse package is a robust URL parser that works in both Node.js and the browser. It provides similar functionality to parse-path but is more focused on URLs rather than file paths. It offers additional features like URL normalization and query string parsing.

path-parse

The path-parse package is a simple utility for parsing file paths into their components. It is similar to parse-path but is more focused on file paths rather than URLs. It provides a straightforward way to access different parts of a file path.

whatwg-url

The whatwg-url package is a full implementation of the WHATWG URL Standard. It provides comprehensive URL parsing and manipulation capabilities, making it more feature-rich compared to parse-path. However, it is more complex and may be overkill for simple use cases.

:sparkling_heart: Support my projects

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).

However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:

• Starring and sharing the projects you like :rocket:

• —I love books! I will remember you after years if you buy me one. :grin: :book:

• —You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a coffee tea. :tea:

• —Set up a recurring monthly donation and you will get interesting news about what I'm doing (things that I don't share with everyone).

• Bitcoin—You can send me bitcoins at this address (or scanning the code below): 1P9BRsmazNQcuyTxEqveUsnf5CERdq35V6

  

Thanks! :heart:
