NAME

       Mojo::Path - Path

SYNOPSIS

         use Mojo::Path;

         # Parse
         my $path = Mojo::Path->new('/foo%2Fbar%3B/baz.html');
         say $path->[0];

         # Build
         my $path = Mojo::Path->new('/i/X');
         push @$path, 'mojolicious';
         say "$path";

DESCRIPTION

       Mojo::Path is a container for paths used by Mojo::URL.

ATTRIBUTES

       Mojo::Path implements the following attributes.

   charset
         my $charset = $path->charset;
         $path       = $path->charset('UTF-8');

       Charset used for encoding and decoding, defaults to "UTF-8".

         # Disable encoding and decoding
         $path->charset(undef);

METHODS

       Mojo::Path inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

   new
         my $path = Mojo::Path->new;
         my $path = Mojo::Path->new('/foo%2Fbar%3B/baz.html');

       Construct a new Mojo::Path object and "parse" path if necessary.

   canonicalize
         $path = $path->canonicalize;

       Canonicalize path.

         # "/foo/baz"
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/./bar/../baz')->canonicalize;

         # "/../baz"
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/../bar/../../baz')->canonicalize;

   clone
         my $clone = $path->clone;

       Clone path.

   contains
         my $bool = $path->contains('/i/X/mojolicious');

       Check if path contains given prefix.

         # True
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/');
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/foo');
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/foo/bar');

         # False
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/f');
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/bar');
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->contains('/whatever');

   leading_slash
         my $bool = $path->leading_slash;
         $path    = $path->leading_slash($bool);

       Path has a leading slash. Note that this method will normalize the path and that %2F will
       be treated as "/" for security reasons.

   merge
         $path = $path->merge('/foo/bar');
         $path = $path->merge('foo/bar');
         $path = $path->merge(Mojo::Path->new('foo/bar'));

       Merge paths. Note that this method will normalize both paths if necessary and that %2F
       will be treated as "/" for security reasons.

         # "/baz/yada"
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->merge('/baz/yada');

         # "/foo/baz/yada"
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar')->merge('baz/yada');

         # "/foo/bar/baz/yada"
         Mojo::Path->new('/foo/bar/')->merge('baz/yada');

   parse
         $path = $path->parse('/foo%2Fbar%3B/baz.html');

       Parse path.

   to_abs_string
         my $str = $path->to_abs_string;

       Turn path into an absolute string.

         # "/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious"
         Mojo::Path->new('/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_abs_string;
         Mojo::Path->new('i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_abs_string;

   parts
         my $parts = $path->parts;
         $path     = $path->parts([qw(foo bar baz)]);

       The path parts. Note that this method will normalize the path and that %2F will be treated
       as "/" for security reasons.

         # Part with slash
         push @{$path->parts}, 'foo/bar';

   to_dir
         my $dir = $route->to_dir;

       Clone path and remove everything after the right-most slash.

         # "/i/%E2%99%A5/"
         Mojo::Path->new('/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_dir->to_abs_string;

         # "i/%E2%99%A5/"
         Mojo::Path->new('i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_dir->to_abs_string;

   to_route
         my $route = $path->to_route;

       Turn path into a route.

         # "/i/X/mojolicious"
         Mojo::Path->new('/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_route;
         Mojo::Path->new('i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_route;

   to_string
         my $str = $path->to_string;
         my $str = "$path";

       Turn path into a string.

         # "/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious"
         Mojo::Path->new('/i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_string;

         # "i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious"
         Mojo::Path->new('i/%E2%99%A5/mojolicious')->to_string;

   trailing_slash
         my $bool = $path->trailing_slash;
         $path    = $path->trailing_slash($bool);

       Path has a trailing slash. Note that this method will normalize the path and that %2F will
       be treated as "/" for security reasons.

PATH PARTS

       Direct array reference access to path parts is also possible. Note that this will
       normalize the path and that %2F will be treated as "/" for security reasons.

         say $path->[0];
         say for @$path;
