A nice package to help you parse all types of URL's in vanilla python and return the parsed URL in groups.
To not brake the API parse_url (returns a dict) still works and we made get_url to get the url parts as as object instead.
In version 2.1 we also included get_basic_url a small yet neat function to get a the main url back from a string
pip install url-parser
from url_parser import parse_url, get_url, get_base_url
url = parse_url('https://open.prospecta.app/my_user_login?user=url-parser&password=H3ll0') # returns url sections as a dict
url_object = get_url('https://open.prospecta.app/my_user_login?user=url-parser&password=H3ll0') # Does the same, bur returns a object
basic_url = get_base_url('https://open.prospecta.app/my_user_login?user=url-parser&password=H3ll0') # Returns just the main url
print(url['domain']) # Outputs -> prospecta
print(url_object.domain) # Outputs -> prospecta
print(basic_url) # Outputs -> https://open.prospecta.app When using the parse_url and get_url function, you get a dict (parse_url) or object (get_url) back with different parts of the URL.
The different parts can be accessed by keywords:
For parse_url use: result['top_domain]
For get_url use: result.top_domain
Here is a list of all the available keywords:
| Keyword | Desription | Value when not present in URL |
|---|---|---|
| protocol | The protocol, e.g. https or ftp | None |
| www | Returns www if www is used in the URL | None |
| sub_domain | The sub domain, e.g. my.subdomain in my.subdomain.example.com. Note that the sub domain also includes www. | None |
| domain | The domain, e.g. example in example.com | Is always present |
| top_domain | The domain, e.g. com in example.com | Is always present |
| dir | The directory, e.g. /my/directory/ in example.com/my/directory/ | None |
| file | The file, e.g. my_file.js in example.com/home/my_file.js | None |
| path | The full path, e.g. /home/my_file.js in example.com/home/my_file.js | None |
| fragment | The URL fragment, e.g. my_link in example.com#my_link | None |
| query | The URL query, e.g. my_parameter=1&foo=bar in example.com?my_parameter=1&foo=bar | None |
