:mod:`urlparse` --- Parse URLs into components
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: urlparse
|
|
:synopsis: Parse URLs into or assemble them from components.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. index::
|
|
single: WWW
|
|
single: World Wide Web
|
|
single: URL
|
|
pair: URL; parsing
|
|
pair: relative; URL
|
|
|
|
This module defines a standard interface to break Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
|
|
strings up in components (addressing scheme, network location, path etc.), to
|
|
combine the components back into a URL string, and to convert a "relative URL"
|
|
to an absolute URL given a "base URL."
|
|
|
|
The module has been designed to match the Internet RFC on Relative Uniform
|
|
Resource Locators (and discovered a bug in an earlier draft!). It supports the
|
|
following URL schemes: ``file``, ``ftp``, ``gopher``, ``hdl``, ``http``,
|
|
``https``, ``imap``, ``mailto``, ``mms``, ``news``, ``nntp``, ``prospero``,
|
|
``rsync``, ``rtsp``, ``rtspu``, ``sftp``, ``shttp``, ``sip``, ``sips``,
|
|
``snews``, ``svn``, ``svn+ssh``, ``telnet``, ``wais``.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 2.5
|
|
Support for the ``sftp`` and ``sips`` schemes.
|
|
|
|
The :mod:`urlparse` module defines the following functions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urlparse(urlstring[, default_scheme[, allow_fragments]])
|
|
|
|
Parse a URL into six components, returning a 6-tuple. This corresponds to the
|
|
general structure of a URL: ``scheme://netloc/path;parameters?query#fragment``.
|
|
Each tuple item is a string, possibly empty. The components are not broken up in
|
|
smaller parts (for example, the network location is a single string), and %
|
|
escapes are not expanded. The delimiters as shown above are not part of the
|
|
result, except for a leading slash in the *path* component, which is retained if
|
|
present. For example::
|
|
|
|
>>> from urlparse import urlparse
|
|
>>> o = urlparse('http://www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html')
|
|
>>> o
|
|
('http', 'www.cwi.nl:80', '/%7Eguido/Python.html', '', '', '')
|
|
>>> o.scheme
|
|
'http'
|
|
>>> o.port
|
|
80
|
|
>>> o.geturl()
|
|
'http://www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html'
|
|
|
|
If the *default_scheme* argument is specified, it gives the default addressing
|
|
scheme, to be used only if the URL does not specify one. The default value for
|
|
this argument is the empty string.
|
|
|
|
If the *allow_fragments* argument is false, fragment identifiers are not
|
|
allowed, even if the URL's addressing scheme normally does support them. The
|
|
default value for this argument is :const:`True`.
|
|
|
|
The return value is actually an instance of a subclass of :class:`tuple`. This
|
|
class has the following additional read-only convenience attributes:

.. versionchanged:: 2.5
|
|
Added attributes to return value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urlunparse(parts)
|
|
|
|
Construct a URL from a tuple as returned by ``urlparse()``. The *parts* argument
|
|
can be any six-item iterable. This may result in a slightly different, but
|
|
equivalent URL, if the URL that was parsed originally had unnecessary delimiters
|
|
(for example, a ? with an empty query; the RFC states that these are
|
|
equivalent).
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urlsplit(urlstring[, default_scheme[, allow_fragments]])
|
|
|
|
This is similar to :func:`urlparse`, but does not split the params from the URL.
|
|
This should generally be used instead of :func:`urlparse` if the more recent URL
|
|
syntax allowing parameters to be applied to each segment of the *path* portion
|
|
of the URL (see :rfc:`2396`) is wanted. A separate function is needed to
|
|
separate the path segments and parameters. This function returns a 5-tuple:
|
|
(addressing scheme, network location, path, query, fragment identifier).
|
|
|
|
The return value is actually an instance of a subclass of :class:`tuple`. This
|
|
class has the following additional read-only convenience attributes:

.. versionadded:: 2.2
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 2.5
|
|
Added attributes to return value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urlunsplit(parts)
|
|
|
|
Combine the elements of a tuple as returned by :func:`urlsplit` into a complete
|
|
URL as a string. The *parts* argument can be any five-item iterable. This may
|
|
result in a slightly different, but equivalent URL, if the URL that was parsed
|
|
originally had unnecessary delimiters (for example, a ? with an empty query; the
|
|
RFC states that these are equivalent).
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 2.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urljoin(base, url[, allow_fragments])
|
|
|
|
Construct a full ("absolute") URL by combining a "base URL" (*base*) with
|
|
another URL (*url*). Informally, this uses components of the base URL, in
|
|
particular the addressing scheme, the network location and (part of) the path,
|
|
to provide missing components in the relative URL. For example::
|
|
|
|
>>> from urlparse import urljoin
|
|
>>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html', 'FAQ.html')
|
|
'http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/FAQ.html'
|
|
|
|
The *allow_fragments* argument has the same meaning and default as for
|
|
:func:`urlparse`.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
If *url* is an absolute URL (that is, starting with ``//`` or ``scheme://``),
|
|
the *url*'s host name and/or scheme will be present in the result. For example:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
>>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html',
|
|
... '//www.python.org/%7Eguido')
|
|
'http://www.python.org/%7Eguido'
|
|
|
|
If you do not want that behavior, preprocess the *url* with :func:`urlsplit` and
|
|
:func:`urlunsplit`, removing possible *scheme* and *netloc* parts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: urldefrag(url)
|
|
|
|
If *url* contains a fragment identifier, returns a modified version of *url*
|
|
with no fragment identifier, and the fragment identifier as a separate string.
|
|
If there is no fragment identifier in *url*, returns *url* unmodified and an
|
|
empty string.

Results of :func:`urlparse` and :func:`urlsplit`
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The result objects from the :func:`urlparse` and :func:`urlsplit` functions are
|
|
subclasses of the :class:`tuple` type. These subclasses add the attributes
|
|
described in those functions, as well as provide an additional method:
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: ParseResult.geturl()
|
|
|
|
Return the re-combined version of the original URL as a string. This may differ
|
|
from the original URL in that the scheme will always be normalized to lower case
|
|
and empty components may be dropped. Specifically, empty parameters, queries,
|
|
and fragment identifiers will be removed.
|
|
|
|
The result of this method is a fixpoint if passed back through the original
|
|
parsing function::
|
|
|
|
>>> import urlparse
|
|
>>> url = 'HTTP://www.Python.org/doc/#'
|
|
|
|
>>> r1 = urlparse.urlsplit(url)
|
|
>>> r1.geturl()
|
|
'http://www.Python.org/doc/'
|
|
|
|
>>> r2 = urlparse.urlsplit(r1.geturl())
|
|
>>> r2.geturl()
|
|
'http://www.Python.org/doc/'
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 2.5
|
|
|
|
The following classes provide the implementations of the parse results::
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: BaseResult
|
|
|
|
Base class for the concrete result classes. This provides most of the attribute
|
|
definitions. It does not provide a :meth:`geturl` method. It is derived from
|
|
:class:`tuple`, but does not override the :meth:`__init__` or :meth:`__new__`
|
|
methods.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: ParseResult(scheme, netloc, path, params, query, fragment)
|
|
|
|
Concrete class for :func:`urlparse` results. The :meth:`__new__` method is
|
|
overridden to support checking that the right number of arguments are passed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. class:: SplitResult(scheme, netloc, path, query, fragment)
|
|
|
|
Concrete class for :func:`urlsplit` results. The :meth:`__new__` method is
|
|
overridden to support checking that the right number of arguments are passed.
