DESCRIPTION

This module implements the URI class. Objects of this class represent "Uniform Resource Identifier references" as specified in RFC 2396 (and updated by RFC 2732).

A Uniform Resource Identifier is a compact string of characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource. A Uniform Resource Identifier can be further classified as either a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or a Uniform Resource Name (URN). The distinction between URL and URN does not matter to the URI class interface. A "URI-reference" is a URI that may have additional information attached in the form of a fragment identifier.

An absolute URI reference consists of three parts: a scheme, a scheme-specific part and a fragment identifier. A subset of URI references share a common syntax for hierarchical namespaces. For these, the scheme-specific part is further broken down into authority, path and query components. These URIs can also take the form of relative URI references, where the scheme (and usually also the authority) component is missing, but implied by the context of the URI reference. The three forms of URI reference syntax are summarized as follows:

<scheme>:<scheme-specific-part>#<fragment>
<scheme>://<authority><path>?<query>#<fragment>
<path>?<query>#<fragment>

The components into which a URI reference can be divided depend on the scheme. The URI class provides methods to get and set the individual components. The methods available for a specific URI object depend on the scheme.

CONSTRUCTORS

The following methods construct new URI objects:

$uri = URI->new( $str )
$uri = URI->new( $str, $scheme )

Constructs a new URI object. The string representation of a URI is given as argument, together with an optional scheme specification. Common URI wrappers like "" and <>, as well as leading and trailing white space, are automatically removed from the $str argument before it is processed further.

The constructor determines the scheme, maps this to an appropriate URI subclass, constructs a new object of that class and returns it.

If the scheme isn't one of those that URI recognizes, you still get an URI object back that you can access the generic methods on. The $uri->has_recognized_scheme method can be used to test for this.

The $scheme argument is only used when $str is a relative URI. It can be either a simple string that denotes the scheme, a string containing an absolute URI reference, or an absolute URI object. If no $scheme is specified for a relative URI $str, then $str is simply treated as a generic URI (no scheme-specific methods available).

The set of characters available for building URI references is restricted (see URI::Escape). Characters outside this set are automatically escaped by the URI constructor.
$uri = URI->new_abs( $str, $base_uri )

Constructs a new absolute URI object. The $str argument can denote a relative or absolute URI. If relative, then it is absolutized using $base_uri as base. The $base_uri must be an absolute URI.
$uri = URI::file->new( $filename )
$uri = URI::file->new( $filename, $os )

Constructs a new file URI from a file name. See URI::file.
$uri = URI::file->new_abs( $filename )
$uri = URI::file->new_abs( $filename, $os )

Constructs a new absolute file URI from a file name. See URI::file.
$uri = URI::file->cwd

Returns the current working directory as a file URI. See URI::file.
$uri->clone

Returns a copy of the $uri.

COMMON METHODS

The methods described in this section are available for all URI objects.

Methods that give access to components of a URI always return the old value of the component. The value returned is undef if the component was not present. There is generally a difference between a component that is empty (represented as "") and a component that is missing (represented as undef). If an accessor method is given an argument, it updates the corresponding component in addition to returning the old value of the component. Passing an undefined argument removes the component (if possible). The description of each accessor method indicates whether the component is passed as an escaped (percent-encoded) or an unescaped string. A component that can be further divided into sub-parts are usually passed escaped, as unescaping might change its semantics.

The common methods available for all URI are:

$uri->scheme
$uri->scheme( $new_scheme )

Sets and returns the scheme part of the $uri. If the $uri is relative, then $uri->scheme returns undef. If called with an argument, it updates the scheme of $uri, possibly changing the class of $uri, and returns the old scheme value. The method croaks if the new scheme name is illegal; a scheme name must begin with a letter and must consist of only US-ASCII letters, numbers, and a few special marks: ".", "+", "-". This restriction effectively means that the scheme must be passed unescaped. Passing an undefined argument to the scheme method makes the URI relative (if possible).

Letter case does not matter for scheme names. The string returned by $uri->scheme is always lowercase. If you want the scheme just as it was written in the URI in its original case, you can use the $uri->_scheme method instead.
$uri->has_recognized_scheme

Returns TRUE if the URI scheme is one that URI recognizes.

It will also be TRUE for relative URLs where a recognized scheme was provided to the constructor, even if $uri->scheme returns undef for these.
$uri->opaque
$uri->opaque( $new_opaque )

Sets and returns the scheme-specific part of the $uri (everything between the scheme and the fragment) as an escaped string.
$uri->path
$uri->path( $new_path )

Sets and returns the same value as $uri->opaque unless the URI supports the generic syntax for hierarchical namespaces. In that case the generic method is overridden to set and return the part of the URI between the host name and the fragment.
$uri->fragment
$uri->fragment( $new_frag )

Returns the fragment identifier of a URI reference as an escaped string.
$uri->as_string

Returns a URI object to a plain ASCII string. URI objects are also converted to plain strings automatically by overloading. This means that $uri objects can be used as plain strings in most Perl constructs.
$uri->as_iri

Returns a Unicode string representing the URI. Escaped UTF-8 sequences representing non-ASCII characters are turned into their corresponding Unicode code point.
$uri->canonical

Returns a normalized version of the URI. The rules for normalization are scheme-dependent. They usually involve lowercasing the scheme and Internet host name components, removing the explicit port specification if it matches the default port, uppercasing all escape sequences, and unescaping octets that can be better represented as plain characters.

For efficiency reasons, if the $uri is already in normalized form, then a reference to it is returned instead of a copy.
$uri->eq( $other_uri )
URI::eq( $first_uri, $other_uri )

Tests whether two URI references are equal. URI references that normalize to the same string are considered equal. The method can also be used as a plain function which can also test two string arguments.

If you need to test whether two URI object references denote the same object, use the '==' operator.
$uri->abs( $base_uri )

Returns an absolute URI reference. If $uri is already absolute, then a reference to it is simply returned. If the $uri is relative, then a new absolute URI is constructed by combining the $uri and the $base_uri, and returned.
$uri->rel( $base_uri )

Returns a relative URI reference if it is possible to make one that denotes the same resource relative to $base_uri. If not, then $uri is simply returned.
$uri->secure

Returns a TRUE value if the URI is considered to point to a resource on a secure channel, such as an SSL or TLS encrypted one.

GENERIC METHODS

The following methods are available to schemes that use the common/generic syntax for hierarchical namespaces. The descriptions of schemes below indicate which these are. Unrecognized schemes are assumed to support the generic syntax, and therefore the following methods:

$uri->authority
$uri->authority( $new_authority )

Sets and returns the escaped authority component of the $uri.
$uri->path
$uri->path( $new_path )

Sets and returns the escaped path component of the $uri (the part between the host name and the query or fragment). The path can never be undefined, but it can be the empty string.
$uri->path_query
$uri->path_query( $new_path_query )

Sets and returns the escaped path and query components as a single entity. The path and the query are separated by a "?" character, but the query can itself contain "?".
$uri->path_segments
$uri->path_segments( $segment, ... )

Sets and returns the path. In a scalar context, it returns the same value as $uri->path. In a list context, it returns the unescaped path segments that make up the path. Path segments that have parameters are returned as an anonymous array. The first element is the unescaped path segment proper; subsequent elements are escaped parameter strings. Such an anonymous array uses overloading so it can be treated as a string too, but this string does not include the parameters.

Note that absolute paths have the empty string as their first path_segment, i.e. the path /foo/bar have 3 path_segments; "", "foo" and "bar".
$uri->query
$uri->query( $new_query )

Sets and returns the escaped query component of the $uri.
$uri->query_form
$uri->query_form( $key1 => $val1, $key2 => $val2, ... )
$uri->query_form( $key1 => $val1, $key2 => $val2, ..., $delim )
$uri->query_form( \@key_value_pairs )
$uri->query_form( \@key_value_pairs, $delim )
$uri->query_form( \%hash )
$uri->query_form( \%hash, $delim )

Sets and returns query components that use the application/x-www-form-urlencoded format. Key/value pairs are separated by "&", and the key is separated from the value by a "=" character.

The form can be set either by passing separate key/value pairs, or via an array or hash reference. Passing an empty array or an empty hash removes the query component, whereas passing no arguments at all leaves the component unchanged. The order of keys is undefined if a hash reference is passed. The old value is always returned as a list of separate key/value pairs. Assigning this list to a hash is unwise as the keys returned might repeat.

The values passed when setting the form can be plain strings or references to arrays of strings. Passing an array of values has the same effect as passing the key repeatedly with one value at a time. All the following statements have the same effect:
```
  $uri->query_form(foo => 1, foo => 2);
  $uri->query_form(foo => [1, 2]);
  $uri->query_form([ foo => 1, foo => 2 ]);
  $uri->query_form([ foo => [1, 2] ]);
  $uri->query_form({ foo => [1, 2] });
```
The $delim parameter can be passed as ";" to force the key/value pairs to be delimited by ";" instead of "&" in the query string. This practice is often recommended for URLs embedded in HTML or XML documents as this avoids the trouble of escaping the "&" character. You might also set the $URI::DEFAULT_QUERY_FORM_DELIMITER variable to ";" for the same global effect.
@keys = $u->query_param
@values = $u->query_param( $key )
$first_value = $u->query_param( $key )
$u->query_param( $key, $value,... )

If $u->query_param is called with no arguments, it returns all the distinct parameter keys of the URI. In a scalar context it returns the number of distinct keys.

When a $key argument is given, the method returns the parameter values with the given key. In a scalar context, only the first parameter value is returned.

If additional arguments are given, they are used to update successive parameters with the given key. If any of the values provided are array references, then the array is dereferenced to get the actual values.

Please note that you can supply multiple values to this method, but you cannot supply multiple keys.

Do this:
```
  $uri->query_param( widget_id => 1, 5, 9 );
```
Do NOT do this:
```
  $uri->query_param( widget_id => 1, frobnicator_id => 99 );
```
$u->query_param_append($key, $value,...)

Adds new parameters with the given key without touching any old parameters with the same key. It can be explained as a more efficient version of:
```
  $u->query_param($key,
                  $u->query_param($key),
                  $value,...);
```
One difference is that this expression would return the old values of $key, whereas the query_param_append() method does not.
@values = $u->query_param_delete($key)
$first_value = $u->query_param_delete($key)

Deletes all key/value pairs with the given key. The old values are returned. In a scalar context, only the first value is returned.

Using the query_param_delete() method is slightly more efficient than the equivalent:
```
  $u->query_param($key, []);
```
$hashref = $u->query_form_hash
$u->query_form_hash( \%new_form )

Returns a reference to a hash that represents the query form's key/value pairs. If a key occurs multiple times, then the hash value becomes an array reference.

Note that sequence information is lost. This means that:
```
  $u->query_form_hash($u->query_form_hash);
```
is not necessarily a no-op, as it may reorder the key/value pairs. The values returned by the query_param() method should stay the same though.
$uri->query_keywords
$uri->query_keywords( $keywords, ... )
$uri->query_keywords( \@keywords )

Sets and returns query components that use the keywords separated by "+" format.

The keywords can be set either by passing separate keywords directly or by passing a reference to an array of keywords. Passing an empty array removes the query component, whereas passing no arguments at all leaves the component unchanged. The old value is always returned as a list of separate words.

SERVER METHODS

For schemes where the authority component denotes an Internet host, the following methods are available in addition to the generic methods.

$uri->userinfo
$uri->userinfo( $new_userinfo )

Sets and returns the escaped userinfo part of the authority component.

For some schemes this is a user name and a password separated by a colon. This practice is not recommended. Embedding passwords in clear text (such as URI) has proven to be a security risk in almost every case where it has been used.
$uri->host
$uri->host( $new_host )

Sets and returns the unescaped hostname.

If the $new_host string ends with a colon and a number, then this number also sets the port.

For IPv6 addresses the brackets around the raw address is removed in the return value from $uri->host. When setting the host attribute to an IPv6 address you can use a raw address or one enclosed in brackets. The address needs to be enclosed in brackets if you want to pass in a new port value as well.
```
  my $uri = URI->new("http://www.\xC3\xBCri-sample/foo/bar.html");
  print $u->host; # www.xn--ri-sample-fra0f
```
$uri->ihost

Returns the host in Unicode form. Any IDNA A-labels (encoded unicode chars with xn-- prefix) are turned into U-labels (unicode chars).
```
  my $uri = URI->new("http://www.\xC3\xBCri-sample/foo/bar.html");
  print $u->ihost; # www.\xC3\xBCri-sample
```
$uri->port
$uri->port( $new_port )

Sets and returns the port. The port is a simple integer that should be greater than 0.

If a port is not specified explicitly in the URI, then the URI scheme's default port is returned. If you don't want the default port substituted, then you can use the $uri->_port method instead.
$uri->host_port
$uri->host_port( $new_host_port )

Sets and returns the host and port as a single unit. The returned value includes a port, even if it matches the default port. The host part and the port part are separated by a colon: ":".

For IPv6 addresses the bracketing is preserved; thus URI->new("http://[::1]/")->host_port returns "[::1]:80". Contrast this with $uri->host which will remove the brackets.
$uri->default_port

Returns the default port of the URI scheme to which $uri belongs. For http this is the number 80, for ftp this is the number 21, etc. The default port for a scheme can not be changed.

SCHEME-SPECIFIC SUPPORT

Scheme-specific support is provided for the following URI schemes. For URI objects that do not belong to one of these, you can only use the common and generic methods.

data:

The data URI scheme is specified in RFC 2397. It allows inclusion of small data items as "immediate" data, as if it had been included externally.

URI objects belonging to the data scheme support the common methods and two new methods to access their scheme-specific components: $uri->media_type and $uri->data. See URI::data for details.
file:

An old specification of the file URI scheme is found in RFC 1738. A new RFC 2396 based specification in not available yet, but file URI references are in common use.

URI objects belonging to the file scheme support the common and generic methods. In addition, they provide two methods for mapping file URIs back to local file names; $uri->file and $uri->dir. See URI::file for details.
ftp:

An old specification of the ftp URI scheme is found in RFC 1738. A new RFC 2396 based specification in not available yet, but ftp URI references are in common use.

URI objects belonging to the ftp scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide two methods for accessing the userinfo sub-components: $uri->user and $uri->password.

It also supports accessing to the encryption mode ($uri->encrypt_mode), which has its own defaults for ftps and ftpes URI schemes.
gopher:

The gopher URI scheme is specified in <draft-murali-url-gopher-1996-12-04> and will hopefully be available as a RFC 2396 based specification.

URI objects belonging to the gopher scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they support some methods for accessing gopher-specific path components: $uri->gopher_type, $uri->selector, $uri->search, $uri->string.
http:

The http URI scheme is specified in RFC 2616. The scheme is used to reference resources hosted by HTTP servers.

URI objects belonging to the http scheme support the common, generic and server methods.
https:

The https URI scheme is a Netscape invention which is commonly implemented. The scheme is used to reference HTTP servers through SSL connections. Its syntax is the same as http, but the default port is different.
geo:

The geo URI scheme is specified in RFC 5870. The scheme is used to reference physical location in a two- or three-dimensional coordinate reference system in a compact, simple, human-readable, and protocol-independent way.

URI objects belonging to the geo scheme support the common methods.
icap:

The icap URI scheme is specified in RFC 3507. The scheme is used to reference resources hosted by ICAP servers.

URI objects belonging to the icap scheme support the common, generic and server methods.
icaps:

The icaps URI scheme is specified in RFC 3507 as well. The scheme is used to reference ICAP servers through SSL connections. Its syntax is the same as icap, including the same default port.
irc:

The irc URI scheme is specified in draft-butcher-irc-url-04. The scheme is used to reference IRC servers and their resources.

URI objects belonging to the irc or ircs scheme support login methods, and the following IRC-specific ones: $uri->entity, $uri->flags, $uri->options.
ldap:

The ldap URI scheme is specified in RFC 2255. LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. An ldap URI describes an LDAP search operation to perform to retrieve information from an LDAP directory.

URI objects belonging to the ldap scheme support the common, generic and server methods as well as ldap-specific methods: $uri->dn, $uri->attributes, $uri->scope, $uri->filter, $uri->extensions. See URI::ldap for details.
ldapi:

Like the ldap URI scheme, but uses a UNIX domain socket. The server methods are not supported, and the local socket path is available as $uri->un_path. The ldapi scheme is used by the OpenLDAP package. There is no real specification for it, but it is mentioned in various OpenLDAP manual pages.
ldaps:

Like the ldap URI scheme, but uses an SSL connection. This scheme is deprecated, as the preferred way is to use the start_tls mechanism.
mailto:

The mailto URI scheme is specified in RFC 2368. The scheme was originally used to designate the Internet mailing address of an individual or service. It has (in RFC 2368) been extended to allow setting of other mail header fields and the message body.

URI objects belonging to the mailto scheme support the common methods and the generic query methods. In addition, they support the following mailto-specific methods: $uri->to, $uri->headers.

Note that the "[email protected]" part of a mailto is not the userinfo and host but instead the path. This allows a mailto URI to contain multiple comma separated email addresses.
mms:

The mms URL specification can be found at http://sdp.ppona.com/. URI objects belonging to the mms scheme support the common, generic, and server methods, with the exception of userinfo and query-related sub-components.
news:

The news, nntp and snews URI schemes are specified in <draft-gilman-news-url-01> and will hopefully be available as an RFC 2396 based specification soon. (Update: as of April 2010, they are in RFC 5538.

URI objects belonging to the news scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide some methods to access the path: $uri->group and $uri->message.
nntp:

See news scheme.
nntps:

See news scheme and RFC 5538.
otpauth:

The otpauth URI scheme is specified in https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format. The scheme is used to encode secret keys for use in TOTP or HOTP schemes.

URI objects belonging to the otpauth scheme support the common methods.
pop:

The pop URI scheme is specified in RFC 2384. The scheme is used to reference a POP3 mailbox.

URI objects belonging to the pop scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide two methods to access the userinfo components: $uri->user and $uri->auth
rlogin:

An old specification of the rlogin URI scheme is found in RFC 1738. URI objects belonging to the rlogin scheme support the common, generic and server methods.
rtsp:

The rtsp URL specification can be found in section 3.2 of RFC 2326. URI objects belonging to the rtsp scheme support the common, generic, and server methods, with the exception of userinfo and query-related sub-components.
rtspu:

The rtspu URI scheme is used to talk to RTSP servers over UDP instead of TCP. The syntax is the same as rtsp.
rsync:

Information about rsync is available from http://rsync.samba.org/. URI objects belonging to the rsync scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide methods to access the userinfo sub-components: $uri->user and $uri->password.
sip:

The sip URI specification is described in sections 19.1 and 25 of RFC 3261. URI objects belonging to the sip scheme support the common, generic, and server methods with the exception of path related sub-components. In addition, they provide two methods to get and set sip parameters: $uri->params_form and $uri->params.
sips:

See sip scheme. Its syntax is the same as sip, but the default port is different.
snews:

See news scheme. Its syntax is the same as news, but the default port is different.
telnet:

An old specification of the telnet URI scheme is found in RFC 1738. URI objects belonging to the telnet scheme support the common, generic and server methods.
tn3270:

These URIs are used like telnet URIs but for connections to IBM mainframes. URI objects belonging to the tn3270 scheme support the common, generic and server methods.
ssh:

Information about ssh is available at http://www.openssh.com/. URI objects belonging to the ssh scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide methods to access the userinfo sub-components: $uri->user and $uri->password.
sftp:

URI objects belonging to the sftp scheme support the common, generic and server methods. In addition, they provide methods to access the userinfo sub-components: $uri->user and $uri->password.
urn:

The syntax of Uniform Resource Names is specified in RFC 2141. URI objects belonging to the urn scheme provide the common methods, and also the methods $uri->nid and $uri->nss, which return the Namespace Identifier and the Namespace-Specific String respectively.

The Namespace Identifier basically works like the Scheme identifier of URIs, and further divides the URN namespace. Namespace Identifier assignments are maintained at http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-namespaces.

Letter case is not significant for the Namespace Identifier. It is always returned in lower case by the $uri->nid method. The $uri->_nid method can be used if you want it in its original case.
urn:isbn:

The urn:isbn: namespace contains International Standard Book Numbers (ISBNs) and is described in RFC 3187. A URI object belonging to this namespace has the following extra methods (if the Business::ISBN module is available): $uri->isbn, $uri->isbn_publisher_code, $uri->isbn_group_code (formerly isbn_country_code, which is still supported by issues a deprecation warning), $uri->isbn_as_ean.
urn:oid:

The urn:oid: namespace contains Object Identifiers (OIDs) and is described in RFC 3061. An object identifier consists of sequences of digits separated by dots. A URI object belonging to this namespace has an additional method called $uri->oid that can be used to get/set the oid value. In a list context, oid numbers are returned as separate elements.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

The following configuration variables influence how the class and its methods behave:

$URI::ABS_ALLOW_RELATIVE_SCHEME

Some older parsers used to allow the scheme name to be present in the relative URL if it was the same as the base URL scheme. RFC 2396 says that this should be avoided, but you can enable this old behaviour by setting the $URI::ABS_ALLOW_RELATIVE_SCHEME variable to a TRUE value. The difference is demonstrated by the following examples:
```
  URI->new("http:foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
      ==>  "http:foo"

  local $URI::ABS_ALLOW_RELATIVE_SCHEME = 1;
  URI->new("http:foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
      ==>  "http:/host/a/foo"
```
$URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS

You can also have the abs() method ignore excess ".." segments in the relative URI by setting $URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS to a TRUE value. The difference is demonstrated by the following examples:
```
  URI->new("../../../foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
      ==> "http://host/../../foo"

  local $URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS = 1;
  URI->new("../../../foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
      ==> "http://host/foo"
```
$URI::DEFAULT_QUERY_FORM_DELIMITER

This value can be set to ";" to have the query form key=value pairs delimited by ";" instead of "&" which is the default.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

URI_HAS_RESERVED_SQUARE_BRACKETS

Before version 5.11, URI treated square brackets as reserved characters throughout the whole URI string. However, these brackets are reserved only within the authority/host part of the URI and nowhere else (RFC 3986).

Starting with version 5.11, URI takes this distinction into account. Setting the environment variable URI_HAS_RESERVED_SQUARE_BRACKETS (programmatically or via the shell), restores the old behavior.
```
  #-- restore 5.10 behavior programmatically
  BEGIN {
    $ENV{URI_HAS_RESERVED_SQUARE_BRACKETS} = 1;
  }
  use URI ();
```
Note: This environment variable is just used during initialization and has to be set before module URI is used/required. Changing it at run time has no effect.

Its value can be checked programmatically by accessing the constant URI::HAS_RESERVED_SQUARE_BRACKETS.

BUGS

There are some things that are not quite right:

Using regexp variables like $1 directly as arguments to the URI accessor methods does not work too well with current perl implementations. I would argue that this is actually a bug in perl. The workaround is to quote them. Example:
```
  /(...)/ || die;
  $u->query("$1");
```
The escaping (percent encoding) of chars in the 128 .. 255 range passed to the URI constructor or when setting URI parts using the accessor methods depend on the state of the internal UTF8 flag (see utf8::is_utf8) of the string passed. If the UTF8 flag is set the UTF-8 encoded version of the character is percent encoded. If the UTF8 flag isn't set the Latin-1 version (byte) of the character is percent encoded. This basically exposes the internal encoding of Perl strings.

PARSING URIs WITH REGEXP

As an alternative to this module, the following (official) regular expression can be used to decode a URI:

my($scheme, $authority, $path, $query, $fragment) =
$uri =~ m|(?:([^:/?#]+):)?(?://([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)(?:\?([^#]*))?(?:#(.*))?|;

The URI::Split module provides the function uri_split() as a readable alternative.
