module URI

Decodes URL-encoded form data from given str.

This decodes application/x-www-form-urlencoded data and returns an array of key-value arrays.

This refers url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-urlencoded-parser, so this supports only &-separator, and doesn’t support ;-separator.

ary = URI.decode_www_form("a=1&a=2&b=3")
ary                   #=> [['a', '1'], ['a', '2'], ['b', '3']]
ary.assoc('a').last   #=> '1'
ary.assoc('b').last   #=> '3'
ary.rassoc('a').last  #=> '2'
Hash[ary]             #=> {"a"=>"2", "b"=>"3"}

Decodes given str of URL-encoded form data.

This decodes + to SP.

See URI.encode_www_form_component, URI.decode_www_form.

# File uri/common.rb, line 386
def self.decode_www_form_component(str, enc=Encoding::UTF_8)
  raise ArgumentError, "invalid %-encoding (#{str})" if /%(?!\h\h)/ =~ str
  str.b.gsub(/\+|%\h\h/, TBLDECWWWCOMP_).force_encoding(enc)
end

Generates URL-encoded form data from given enum.

This generates application/x-www-form-urlencoded data defined in HTML5 from given an Enumerable object.

This internally uses URI.encode_www_form_component(str).

This method doesn’t convert the encoding of given items, so convert them before calling this method if you want to send data as other than original encoding or mixed encoding data. (Strings which are encoded in an HTML5 ASCII incompatible encoding are converted to UTF-8.)

This method doesn’t handle files. When you send a file, use multipart/form-data.

This refers url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-urlencoded-serializer

URI.encode_www_form([["q", "ruby"], ["lang", "en"]])
#=> "q=ruby&lang=en"
URI.encode_www_form("q" => "ruby", "lang" => "en")
#=> "q=ruby&lang=en"
URI.encode_www_form("q" => ["ruby", "perl"], "lang" => "en")
#=> "q=ruby&q=perl&lang=en"
URI.encode_www_form([["q", "ruby"], ["q", "perl"], ["lang", "en"]])
#=> "q=ruby&q=perl&lang=en"

See URI.encode_www_form_component, URI.decode_www_form.

# File uri/common.rb, line 418
def self.encode_www_form(enum, enc=nil)
  enum.map do |k,v|
    if v.nil?
      encode_www_form_component(k, enc)
    elsif v.respond_to?(:to_ary)
      v.to_ary.map do |w|
        str = encode_www_form_component(k, enc)
        unless w.nil?
          str << '='
          str << encode_www_form_component(w, enc)
        end
      end.join('&')
    else
      str = encode_www_form_component(k, enc)
      str << '='
      str << encode_www_form_component(v, enc)
    end
  end.join('&')
end

Encodes given str to URL-encoded form data.

This method doesn’t convert *, -, ., 0-9, A-Z, _, a-z, but does convert SP (ASCII space) to + and converts others to %XX.

If enc is given, convert str to the encoding before percent encoding.

This is an implementation of www.w3.org/TR/2013/CR-html5-20130806/forms.html#url-encoded-form-data.

See URI.decode_www_form_component, URI.encode_www_form.

# File uri/common.rb, line 368
def self.encode_www_form_component(str, enc=nil)
  str = str.to_s.dup
  if str.encoding != Encoding::ASCII_8BIT
    if enc && enc != Encoding::ASCII_8BIT
      str.encode!(Encoding::UTF_8, invalid: :replace, undef: :replace)
      str.encode!(enc, fallback: ->(x){"&##{x.ord};"})
    end
    str.force_encoding(Encoding::ASCII_8BIT)
  end
  str.gsub!(/[^*\-.0-9A-Z_a-z]/, TBLENCWWWCOMP_)
  str.force_encoding(Encoding::US_ASCII)
end

Synopsis¶ ↑

URI::extract(str[, schemes][,&blk])

Args¶ ↑

def self.extract(str, schemes = nil, &block)
  warn "URI.extract is obsolete", uplevel: 1 if $VERBOSE
  DEFAULT_PARSER.extract(str, schemes, &block)
end

Synopsis¶ ↑

URI::join(str[, str, ...])

Args¶ ↑

str

String(s) to work with, will be converted to RFC3986 URIs before merging.

Description¶ ↑

Joins URIs.

Usage¶ ↑

require 'uri'

URI.join("http://example.com/","main.rbx")
# => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/main.rbx>

URI.join('http://example.com', 'foo')
# => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/foo>

URI.join('http://example.com', '/foo', '/bar')
# => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/bar>

URI.join('http://example.com', '/foo', 'bar')

Synopsis¶ ↑

URI::parse(uri_str)

Args¶ ↑

uri_str

String with URI.

Description¶ ↑

Creates one of the URI’s subclasses instance from the string.

Raises¶ ↑

URI::InvalidURIError

Raised if URI given is not a correct one.

Usage¶ ↑

require 'uri'

uri = URI.parse("http://www.ruby-lang.org/")
# => #<URI::HTTP http://www.ruby-lang.org/>
uri.scheme
# => "http"

Usage¶ ↑

require 'uri'

# extract first URI from html_string
html_string.slice(URI.regexp)

# remove ftp URIs
html_string.sub(URI.regexp(['ftp']), '')

# You should not rely on the number of parentheses
html_string.scan(URI.regexp) do |*matches|
  p $&
end
