NAME URI::Info - Extract various information from a URI (URL) VERSION This document describes version 0.003 of URI::Info (from Perl distribution URI-Info), released on 2023-06-14. SYNOPSIS use URI::Info; my $info = URI::Info->new( # include_plugins => ['Search::*'], # only use these plugins. by default, all plugins will be loaded # exclude_plugins => [...], # don't use certain plugins ); my $res = $info->info("https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&oq=kathy+griffin"); # => { # host => "www.google.com", # is_search=>1, # search_engine=>"Google", # search_string=>"kathy griffin", # } DESCRIPTION This module (and its plugins) will let you extract various information from a piece of URI (URL) string. Keywords: URI parser, URL parser, search string extractor FUNCTIONS uri_info Usage: my $hashref = uri_info($uri); Return a hash of extracted pieces of information from a $uri string. Will consult the plugins to do the hard work. All the installed plugins will be used. To customize the set of plugins to use, use the OO interface. METHODS new Usage: my $uinfo = URI::Info->new(%args); Constructor. Known arguments ("*" marks required arguments): * include_plugins Array of plugins (names or wildcard patterns or names+arguments) to include. Plugin name is module name under "URI::Info::Plugin::" without the prefix, e.g.: SearchQuery::tokopedia Wildcard pattern is a pattern containing wildcard characters, e.g: SearchQuery::toko* SearchQuery::** See Module::List::Wildcard for more details on the wildcard behavior, particularly the difference between "*" and "**". Name+argument is either: 1) a string containing plugin name followed by "=" followed by a comma-separated list of arguments, or; 2) a 2-element arrayref where the first element is plugin name or wildcard pattern, and the second element is an arrayref or hashref of arguments to instantiate the plugin with. Examples: SearchQuery::tokopedia=foo,1,bar,2 ['SearchQuery::tokopedia', {foo=>1, bar=>2, ...}] If "include_plugins" is unspecified, will list all installed modules under "URI::Info::Plugin::" and include them all. * exclude_plugins Array of plugins (names or wildcard patterns) to exclude. Takes precedence over "include_plugins" argument. Default is empty array. info Usage: my $hashref = $uinfo->info($url); Example: my $hashref = $uinfo->info("https://www.google.com/search?q=foo+bar"); # => {url=>"https://www.google.com/search?q=foo+bar", is_search=>1, search_type=>'search', search_query=>'foo bar'} ENVIRONMENT URI_INFO_PLUGINS This can be used to include/exclude plugins when "include_plugins" *and* "exclude_plugins" attributes are not set. The syntax is: -Plugin1ToExclude,+Plugin2ToInclude,arg1,val1,...,+Plugin3ToInclude HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at . SOURCE Source repository is at . SEE ALSO URI::ParseSearchString. For extracting search query terms, this module is much more concise albeit not plugin-based. Last update is 2013. AUTHOR perlancar CONTRIBUTOR Steven Haryanto CONTRIBUTING To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub. Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via: % prove -l If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2023, 2021 by perlancar .
