urlp

A simple command-line utility for parsing URLs, written in Python. Inspired by urlp.

$ urlp --host "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
www.cnn.com
$ urlp --registered_domain "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
cnn.com
$ urlp --path "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
/service/alert.jsp
$ urlp --path -i 0 "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
service
$ urlp --query "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
s=cnn&v=a
$ urlp --query --query_field=s "http://www.cnn.com/service/alert.jsp?s=cnn&v=a"
cnn

urlp often works together with other unix command-line tools. For example:

• Find all hosts in urls, sorted by count.

cat urlfile | urlp --host | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr -k1,1

• Find all url path words (separated by "/"), sorted by count.

cat urlfile | urlp --path | tr / \\n | awk '$1!=""' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr -k1,1

Install

pip install urlp
