URI::Split(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is URI::Split(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally here to Parse and compose URI strings 💖 no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use URI::Split qw(uri_split uri_join);
($scheme, $auth, $path, $query, $frag) = uri_split($uri);
$uri = uri_join($scheme, $auth, $path, $query, $frag);

Like, that's the whole vibe: split a URI into pieces, then put it back together 🎀.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Provides functions to parse and compose URI strings. The following functions are provided:

🦋 ($scheme, $auth, $path, $query, $frag) = uri_split($uri) 🦋

Breaks up a URI string into its component parts. An undef value is returned for those parts that are not present. The $path part is always present (but can be the empty string) and is thus never returned as undef.

🫶 heads up: no sensible value is returned if this function is called in a scalar context. Like, don't do that, okay?

🧚 $uri = uri_join($scheme, $auth, $path, $query, $frag) 🧚

Puts together a URI string from its parts. Missing parts are signaled by passing undef for the corresponding argument.

Minimal escaping is applied to parts that contain reserved chars that would confuse a parser. For instance, any occurrence of '?' or '#' in $path is always escaped, as it would otherwise be parsed back as a query or fragment. Slay, parser-friendly 💅.
