A Swiss Army knife for URLs
===========================

[](#a-swiss-army-knife-for-urls)

This package is for you when PHP's parse\_url() is not enough.

**Key Features:**

- **Parse a URL** and access or modify all its **components** separately.
- Resolve any **relative reference** you may find in an HTML document **to an absolute URL**, based on the document's URL.
- Get not only the full **host** of a URL, but also the **registrable domain**, the **domain suffix** and the **subdomain** parts of the host separately (Thanks to the [Mozilla Public Suffix List](https://publicsuffix.org/)).
- An advanced API to access and manipulate the **URL query** component.
- **Compare URLs** or components of URLs (e.g. checking if different URLs point to the same host or domain)
- Thanks to [symfony/polyfill-intl-idn](https://github.com/symfony/polyfill-intl-idn)it's also no problem to parse **internationalized domain names (IDN)**.
- Includes an adapter class which implements the [PSR-7 UriInterface](https://github.com/php-fig/http-message/blob/master/src/UriInterface.php).
