ciu-parser

dotnet-credentials-in-url-parser

This package replaces both PostgresConnString.NET and mongo-url-parser as they are very basic packages.

It aims to grant general .NET support for parsing and converting urls in the form "scheme://user:password@host:port/database?connectionparameters" also known as Credential-In-Url and converting it to formats easily used by the database service providers for .NET.

Installation

You can install the package from nuget

Install-Package ciu-parser

or

dotnet add package ciu-parser

or for paket

paket add ciu-parser

Usage

Parsing Urls

To parse a url

using CredentialsInUrlParser;
...
var details = CIU.Parse("postgres://someuser:somepassword@somehost:381/somedatabase");

The resulting details contains a subset of the following properties:

• Scheme - Database server scheme
• HostName - Database server hostname
• Port - port on which to connect
• UserName - User with which to authenticate to the server
• Password - Corresponding password
• DatabasePath - Database name within the server
• AdditionalQueryParameters - Additional database parameters provided as query options

Exports

Currently, this library allows for generating an Npgsql compatible connection strings. With the following parameters

• pooling: type: boolean, default: true
• trustServerCertificate: type: boolean, default: true
• sslMode: type: enum, default: Prefer

using CredentialsInUrlParser;
...
var details = CIU.Parse("postgres://someuser:somepassword@somehost:381/somedatabase");
var connString = details.ToNpgsqlSConnectionString(); //User ID=someuser;Password=somepassword;Server=somehost;Port=381;Database=somedatabase;Pooling=true;SSL Mode=Prefer;Trust Server Certificate=true

This library also allows for generating a MongoDB compatible connection string and database name.

using CredentialsInUrlParser;
...
var details = CIU.Parse("mongodb://user:password@host:port/database-name?otheroptions");
var (dbUrl, dbName)  = details.ToMongoConnectionSplit(); 
// dbUrl: mongodb://user:password@host:port?otheroptions
// dbName: database-name
