rfc3986
=======

A Python implementation of `RFC 3986`_ including validation and authority
parsing.

Installation
------------

Use pip to install ``rfc3986`` like so::

    pip install rfc3986

Example Usage
-------------

The following are the two most common use cases envisioned for ``rfc3986``.

Replacing ``urlparse``
``````````````````````

To parse a URI and receive something very similar to the standard library's
``urllib.parse.urlparse``

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import urlparse

    ssh = urlparse('ssh://user@git.openstack.org:29418/openstack/glance.git')
    print(ssh.scheme)  # => ssh
    print(ssh.userinfo)  # => user
    print(ssh.params)  # => None
    print(ssh.port)  # => 29418

To create a copy of it with new pieces you can use ``copy_with``:

.. code-block:: python

    new_ssh = ssh.copy_with(
        scheme='https'
        userinfo='',
        port=443,
        path='/openstack/glance'
    )
    print(new_ssh.scheme)  # => https
    print(new_ssh.userinfo)  # => None
    # etc.

Strictly Parsing a URI and Applying Validation
``````````````````````````````````````````````

To parse a URI into a convenient named tuple, you can simply:

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import uri_reference

    example = uri_reference('http://example.com')
    email = uri_reference('mailto:user@domain.com')
    ssh = uri_reference('ssh://user@git.openstack.org:29418/openstack/keystone.git')

With a parsed URI you can access data about the components:

.. code-block:: python

    print(example.scheme)  # => http
    print(email.path)  # => user@domain.com
    print(ssh.userinfo)  # => user
    print(ssh.host)  # => git.openstack.org
    print(ssh.port)  # => 29418

It can also parse URIs with unicode present:

.. code-block:: python

    uni = uri_reference(b'http://httpbin.org/get?utf8=\xe2\x98\x83')  # ☃
    print(uni.query)  # utf8=%E2%98%83

With a parsed URI you can also validate it:

.. code-block:: python

    if ssh.is_valid():
        subprocess.call(['git', 'clone', ssh.unsplit()])

You can also take a parsed URI and normalize it:

.. code-block:: python

    mangled = uri_reference('hTTp://exAMPLe.COM')
    print(mangled.scheme)  # => hTTp
    print(mangled.authority)  # => exAMPLe.COM

    normal = mangled.normalize()
    print(normal.scheme)  # => http
    print(mangled.authority)  # => example.com

But these two URIs are (functionally) equivalent:

.. code-block:: python

    if normal == mangled:
        webbrowser.open(normal.unsplit())

Your paths, queries, and fragments are safe with us though:

.. code-block:: python

    mangled = uri_reference('hTTp://exAMPLe.COM/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth')
    normal = mangled.normalize()
    assert normal == 'hTTp://exAMPLe.COM/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth'
    assert normal == 'http://example.com/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth'
    assert normal != 'http://example.com/some/really/bizzare/path'

If you do not actually need a real reference object and just want to normalize
your URI:

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import normalize_uri

    assert (normalize_uri('hTTp://exAMPLe.COM/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth') ==
            'http://example.com/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth')

You can also very simply validate a URI:

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import is_valid_uri

    assert is_valid_uri('hTTp://exAMPLe.COM/Some/reallY/biZZare/pAth')

Requiring Components
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can validate that a particular string is a valid URI and require
independent components:

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import is_valid_uri

    assert is_valid_uri('http://localhost:8774/v2/resource',
                        require_scheme=True,
                        require_authority=True,
                        require_path=True)

    # Assert that a mailto URI is invalid if you require an authority
    # component
    assert is_valid_uri('mailto:user@example.com', require_authority=True) is False

If you have an instance of a ``URIReference``, you can pass the same arguments
to ``URIReference#is_valid``, e.g.,

.. code-block:: python

    from rfc3986 import uri_reference

    http = uri_reference('http://localhost:8774/v2/resource')
    assert uri.is_valid(require_scheme=True,
                        require_authority=True,
                        require_path=True)

    # Assert that a mailto URI is invalid if you require an authority
    # component
    mailto = uri_reference('mailto:user@example.com')
    assert uri.is_valid(require_authority=True) is False

Alternatives
------------

- `rfc3987 <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/rfc3987/1.3.4>`_

  This is a direct competitor to this library, with extra features,
  licensed under the GPL.

- `uritools <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uritools/0.5.1>`_

  This can parse URIs in the manner of RFC 3986 but provides no validation and
  only recently added Python 3 support.

- Standard library's `urlparse`/`urllib.parse`

  The functions in these libraries can only split a URI (valid or not) and
  provide no validation.
