Description of change

This is a work in progress.

See: nodejs/node-eps#28
See: https://url.spec.whatwg.org

Implements WHATWG URL support. Example:

var u = new url.URL('http://example.org');

This is quite rough to start. Most of the WHATWG URL basic parser is supported. Currently only about 2726 of the standard tests fail. There's still quite a bit of additional work to be done on this.

@mscdex @bnoordhuis @indutny ... would appreciate you all taking a look. The emphasis here currently is on spec compliance but the performance definitely needs to improve. It's functionally operational but obviously can use some performance improvements. The one bit currently missing is the host parsing which is why this currently fails 26 of the standard tests (all the failures deal with host edge cases).

The WHATWG URL parsing is intentionally liberal and lenient so there are some bits we can't easily work around -- such as ignoring whitespace.

note: this is in anticipation of my other PR that switches to ICU's punycode impl landing. If/when that moves forward, we'll be able to take advantage of some other performance improvements from that.

I'm curious, why implement part in javascript and part in c++?

Also, I probably wouldn't worry much about performance until it passes all tests first.

I implemented it in pure js first and the performance was fairly abysmal.
I'm planning to keep toying with the js impl to see if I can get the
performance better but this seems to do pretty well.

Not sure how widespread breakage would be, but I'm generally for this, so long as it doesn't introduce a new module or global.

jasnell commented Jun 28, 2016

Breakage would be minimal at this point because there is absolutely zero change to the existing URL implementation. Existing code should be entirely unaffected.

StorageObject.prototype = Object.create(null);

class URL {
constructor(input, base) {

This is not a good implementation of the IDL. input and base do not need to be strings (or URLs).

Instead, the first few lines of this should be something like

if (input === undefined) {
  throw new TypeError("first argument is required");
}
input = String(input);

if (base !== undefined) {
  base = String(base);
}

(Actually those String(input)s should actually be toUSVString(input)... but that's a separate discussion.)

The same applies to all the setters, which should just do scheme = String(scheme), not throw a TypeError.

These aspects of the API will not be tested in the web platform tests since they are, in typical implementations, auto-generated from Web IDL.

Yeah, the js side of this is somewhat temporary at the moment while I focus on the parsing bits. Currently this is a close-enough-to-be-somewhat-functional impl of the IDL bits ;-). This is definitely helpful tho and I've added it to my list of todo's.

Ah OK cool :). Sorry for the premature review then; the JS part is easier for me to review so I just dived in.

No worries at all! I definitely appreciate the eyes on it and I'm hoping t sort out all of the js/IDL bits this week so this is helpful.

ok well, I definitely don't think we should add a new, competitive implementation.

As I've said previously, the idea is to introduce the standard API in
parallel specifically to avoid breaking things. Once the impl is done and
we're sure it works, we can begin transitioning users off the old impl and
deprecate the current url.parse method or modify it so that it returns a
URL object.

Will it contain also URLSearchParams? It will be quite usefull, and future possible replacement for standart querystring module.

Yes, though it likely would not replace the querystring module entirely.
The querystring module would likely be used to help impl URLSearchParams.

Ok, updated with a rough implementation of the host parsing. Currently only failing 11 of the standard parsing tests... most of which deal with punycode handling. Once #7355 lands, that'll be easier to handle.

@nodejs/collaborators @domenic ... this is now passing 100% of the parsing tests and all but two of the setter tests (those two are currently skipped, chrome fails those two also it appears). I have added the URLSearchParams impl and the URL statics domainToASCII() and domainToUnicode().

At this point, this has the appropriate test coverage but the performance is still lacking. The next step after this is to begin working on improving performance without sacrificing correctness. It's likely to not perform as well as require('url').parse() for a while but it's reasonable.
