🧑‍🤝‍🧑URL utils for humans. 🔗🚀 Powerful and easy-to-use URL operations for Node.js developers with url-ops. Simplify your URL manipulation with a collection of functions that ensures URLs are properly encoded, has consistent encoding, and supports relative URLs. The package provides a consistent URL parser, encoding, and decoding independent of environment and offers punycode support for host encoding. Normalize, resolve, and parse URLs with ease using url-ops.

Install

Install:

# nyxi
nyxi url-ops

# pnpm
pnpm add url-ops

# npm
npm i url-ops

# yarn
yarn add url-ops

Import:

// CommonJS
const { normalizeURL, joinURL } = require('url-ops')

// ESM
import { normalizeURL, joinURL } from 'url-ops'

// Deno
import { parseURL } from 'https://unpkg.com/url-ops/dist/index.mjs'

Notice: You may need to transpile package and add URL polyfill for legacy environments

Usage

normalizeURL

• Ensures URL is properly encoded
• Ensures pathname starts with slash
• Preserves protocol/host if provided

normalizeURL('test?query=123 123#hash, test')
// test?query=123%20123#hash,%20test

normalizeURL('http://localhost:3000')
// http://localhost:3000/

joinURL

joinURL('a', '/b', '/c')
// a/b/c

resolveURL

resolveURL('http://foo.com/foo?test=123#token', 'bar', 'baz')
// http://foo.com/foo/bar/baz?test=123#token

parseURL

parseURL('http://foo.com/foo?test=123#token')
// { protocol: 'http:', auth: '', host: 'foo.com', pathname: '/foo', search: '?test=123', hash: '#token' }

parseURL('foo.com/foo?test=123#token')
// { pathname: 'foo.com/foo', search: '?test=123', hash: '#token' }

parseURL('foo.com/foo?test=123#token', 'https://')
// { protocol: 'https:', auth: '', host: 'foo.com', pathname: '/foo', search: '?test=123', hash: '#token' }

stringifyParsedURL

const obj = parseURL('http://foo.com/foo?test=123#token')
obj.host = 'bar.com'

stringifyParsedURL(obj)
// http://bar.com/foo?test=123#token

withQuery

withQuery('/foo?page=a', { token: 'secret' })
// /foo?page=a&token=secret

getQuery

getQuery('http://foo.com/foo?test=123&unicode=%E5%A5%BD')
// { test: '123', unicode: '好' }

$URL

Implementing URL interface with improvements:

• Supporting schemeless and hostless URLs
• Supporting relative URLs
• Preserving trailing-slash status
• Decoded and mutable class properties (protocol, host, auth, pathname, query, hash)
• Consistent URL parser independent of environment
• Consistent encoding independent of environment
• Punycode support for host encoding

new $URL('http://localhost:3000/hello?world=true')
// { protocol: 'http:', host: 'localhost:3000', auth: '', pathname: '/hello', query: { world: 'true' }, hash: '' }

withTrailingSlash

Ensures url ends with a trailing slash.

withTrailingSlash('/foo')
// /foo/

Set the second option to true to support query parameters:

withTrailingSlash('/path?query=true', true)
// /path/?query=true

withoutTrailingSlash

Ensures url does not ends with a trailing slash.

withoutTrailingSlash('/foo/')
// /foo

Set the second option to true to support query parameters:

withoutTrailingSlash('/path/?query=true', true)
// /path?query=true

cleanDoubleSlashes

Ensures url does not have double slash (except for protocol).

cleanDoubleSlashes('//foo//bar//')
// /foo/bar/

cleanDoubleSlashes('http://example.com/analyze//http://localhost:3000//')
// http://example.com/analyze/http://localhost:3000/

isSamePath

Check two paths are equal or not. Trailing slash and encoding are normalized before comparation.

isSamePath('/foo', '/foo/')
// true

isRelative

Check if a path starts with ./ or ../.

isRelative('./foo')
// true

withHttp

Ensures url protocol is http

withHttp('https://example.com')
// http://example.com

withHttps

Ensures url protocol is https

withHttps('http://example.com')
// https://example.com

withProtocol

Changes url protocol passed as second argument

withProtocol('http://example.com', 'ftp://')
// ftp://example.com

withoutProtocol

Removes url protocol

withoutProtocol('http://example.com')
// example.com

isEqual

Compare two URLs regardless of their slash condition or encoding:

isEqual('/foo', 'foo')
// true
isEqual('foo/', 'foo')
// true
isEqual('/foo bar', '/foo%20bar')
// true

// Strict compare
isEqual('/foo', 'foo', { leadingSlash: true })
// false
isEqual('foo/', 'foo', { trailingSlash: true })
// false
isEqual('/foo bar', '/foo%20bar', { encoding: true })
// false
