url-resolve-browser

This module resolves URLs like node.js's url.resolve but works in the browser. Other modules exist to fulfill this purpose but they do so by creating html elements, adding them to the page, then removing them. This module is purely JavaScript.

Install:

npm i url-resolve-browser --save

Usage:

const urlResolve = require('url-resolve-browser');
urlResolve(base, relative);

Where base is a net path (http://example.com) with the optional pieces of query (?query=query&two=....) and/or hash (#location) and relative is a either a net path, absolute path (/absolute/path) or a relative path (relative/path) and can also contain the query and/or hash like before.

Details:

This module is NOT the same as node.js' url.resolve as it requires the first argument to be a net path. Also, This module does not do any URL encoding (E.G. { => %7B).

The logic for this module was primarily derived from the following document: Link
