parses an RFC 3986 URI

Given a URI string, this function parses it according to RFC 3986, additionally parsing userinfo similarly to HTTP:

userinfo.user[:userinfo.pass]

and parsing the query similarly to HTTP:

key=value(&key=value)*

into the attrs dictionary. Since some schemes may not have further encoding within the query, or may not use the HTTP-like query encoding, a raw_query as well as a the entire (percent-decoded) query are made available. Failure to decode the query in an HTTP-like manner will not cause an error, but the attrs dictionary will be absent. A path is always returned, even if empty, per the spec. All values returned have been percent-decoded, except for uri and raw_query.

Parameters

url

pointer to the URI string to parse

len

length of the URI string to parse

Return Values

Returns an ec_url_details structure on success, or NULL on failure.
