Library for url utf8 encode/decode
version: 0.1.28 date: 2021-10-22 author: bestia.dev repository: GitHub

Hashtags: #rustlang #url #tutorial My projects on Github are more like a tutorial than a finished product: bestia-dev tutorials.

Motivation

Urls must be constantly encoded and decoded.
It deserves something short like the macro url!("x/y/{}", name).
This module is strictly limited to utf8 urls.
Url is made of parts, fragments or segments mostly delimited by slash "/".
They must be separately encoded/decoded, not as a whole url string.
It is impossible to guarantee that the whole string is correctly encoded/decoded.
But is possible to minimize the misuse of the String type for Url.
With the normal String it is not possible to force the developer to encode/decode.
With special wrapper types around String is possible to help the coder to write properly and not forget about it.
TODO: analyze if is possible to use more &str and Cow instead of always allocating String.
But urls are usually small and this is not a priority.

Development

I use cargo-auto for my automation tasks like cargo auto build or cargo auto doc, ...

cargo crev reviews and advisory

We live in times of danger with supply chain attacks.
It is recommended to always use cargo-crev
to verify the trustworthiness of each of your dependencies.
Please, spread this info.
You can also read reviews quickly on the web:

Open-source and free as a beer

My open-source projects are free as a beer (MIT license).
I just love programming.
But I need also to drink. If you find my projects and tutorials helpful, please buy me a beer by donating to my PayPal.
