What is parse-url?

The parse-url npm package is used to parse URLs and extract components such as protocol, auth, host, pathname, query parameters, and hash. It provides a simple API to break down a URL string into its constituent parts for easy access and manipulation.

What are parse-url's main functionalities?

Parsing the URL

This feature allows you to parse a full URL and returns an object with properties like protocol, resource, user, pathname, hash, search, and query. Each property represents a specific part of the URL.

const parseUrl = require('parse-url');
const parsed = parseUrl('https://www.example.com:8080/path/name?query=value#hash');
console.log(parsed);

Parsing the Query String

This feature specifically focuses on parsing the query string part of the URL and converting it into an object for easy access to each query parameter.

const parseUrl = require('parse-url');
const parsed = parseUrl('https://www.example.com/path/name?query=value&another=thing');
console.log(parsed.query);

Reconstructing the URL

After parsing a URL and potentially modifying its components, this feature allows you to reconstruct the URL back into a string.

const parseUrl = require('parse-url');
const parsed = parseUrl('https://www.example.com/path/name');
parsed.resource = 'www.another-example.com';
const reconstructedUrl = parseUrl.stringify(parsed);
console.log(reconstructedUrl);
