Advanced tools
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.
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);
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.
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.
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.
