whatwg-url

Parsing and Serializing URLs

This feature allows for the parsing of a full URL string into its constituent parts, as well as the serialization of the URL object back into a string.

const { URL } = require('whatwg-url');
const myURL = new URL('https://example.com/path?query=123#fragment');
console.log(myURL.href); // 'https://example.com/path?query=123#fragment'

Manipulating URL Components

This feature enables the modification of different parts of the URL, such as the pathname, search, or hash.

const { URL } = require('whatwg-url');
const myURL = new URL('https://example.com/path');
myURL.pathname = '/newPath';
console.log(myURL.href); // 'https://example.com/newPath'

Working with URLSearchParams

This feature provides an interface for working with query strings, allowing for easy parsing, appending, deleting, and iterating over query parameters.

const { URLSearchParams } = require('whatwg-url');
const params = new URLSearchParams('key1=value1&key2=value2');
params.append('key3', 'value3');
console.log(params.toString()); // 'key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3'
