NAME
URI::Escape::XS - Drop-In replacement for URI::Escape
VERSION
$Id: XS.pm,v 0.11 2014/01/20 20:39:54 dankogai Exp dankogai $
SYNOPSIS
# use it instead of URI::Escape
use URI::Escape::XS qw/uri_escape uri_unescape/;
$safe = uri_escape("10% is enough\n");
$verysafe = uri_escape("foo", "\0-\377");
$str = uri_unescape($safe);
# or use encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent
use URI::Escape::XS;
$safe = encodeURIComponent("10% is enough\n");
$str = decodeURIComponent("10%25%20is%20enough%0A");
# if you have CNet::IDN::Encode installed
$safe = encodeURIComponentIDN("http://XXXXXX.jp/dan/");
$str = decodeURIComponentIDN("http:%2F%2Fxn--eckwd4c7cu47r2wf.jp%2Fdan%2F");
EXPORT
by default
"encodeURIComponent" and "decodeURIComponent"
"encodeURIComponentIDN" and "decodeURIComponentIDN" if either Net::LibIDN or
Net::IDN::Encode is available
on demand
"uri_escape" and "uri_unescape"
FUNCTIONS
encodeURIComponent
Does what JavaScript's encodeURIComponent does.
$uri = encodeURIComponent("http://www.example.com/");
# http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2F
Note you cannot customize characters to escape. If you need to do so, use "uri_escape".
decodeURIComponent
Does what JavaScript's decodeURIComponent does.
$str = decodeURIComponent("http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2F");
# http://www.example.com/
It decode not only %HH sequences but also %uHHHH sequences, with surrogate pairs correctly
decoded.
$str = decodeURIComponent("%uD869%uDEB2%u5F3E%u0061");
# \x{2A6B2}\x{5F3E}a
This function UNCONDITIONALLY returns the decoded string with utf8 flag off. To get
utf8-decoded string, use Encode and
decode_utf8(decodeURIComponent($uri));
This is the correct behavior because you cannot tell if the decoded string actually
contains UTF-8 decoded string, like ISO-8859-1 and Shift_JIS.
encodeURIComponentIDN
Same as "encodeURIComponent" except that the host part is encoded in punycode. Either
Net::LibIDN or Net::IDN::Encode is required to use this function.
URIs with Internationalizing Domain Names require two encodings: Punycode for host part
and URI escape for the rest.
Currently only FULL URIs with "http:" or "https:" are supported.
decodeURIComponentIDN
Same as "decodeURIComponent" except that the host part is encoded in punycode. Either
Net::LibIDN or Net::IDN::Encode is required to use this function.
uri_escape
Does exactly the same as URI::Escape::uri_escape() except when utf8-flagged string is fed.
URI::Escape::uri_escape() croak and urge you to "uri_escape_utf8()" but it is pointless
because URI itself has no such things as utf8 flag. The function in this module ALWAYS
TREATS the string as byte sequence. That way you can safely use this function without
worrying about utf8 flags.
Note this function is NOT EXPORTED by default. That way you can use URI::Escape and
URI::Escape::XS simultaneously.
uri_unescape
Does exactly the same as URI::Escape::uri_escape() except when %uHHHH is fed.
URI::Escape::uri_unescape() simply ignores %uHHHH sequences while the function in this
module does decode it into the corresponding UTF-8 byte sequence.
Like uri_escape, this function is NOT EXPORTED by default.
Note on the %uHHHH sequence
With this module the resulting strings never have the utf8 flag on. So if you want to
decode it to perl utf8, You have to explicitly decode via Encode. Remember. URIs have
always been a byte sequence, not UTF-8 characters.
If the %uHHHH sequence became standard, you could have safely told if a given URI is in
Unicode. But more fortunately than unfortunately, the RFC proposal was rejected so you
cannot tell which encoding is used just by looking at the URI.
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding#Non-standard_implementations>
I said fortunately because %uHHHH can be nasty for non-BMP characters. Since each %uHHHH
can hold one 16-bit value, you need a surrogate pair to represent it if it is U+10000 and
above.
In spite of that, there are a significant number of URIs with %uHHHH escapes. Therefore
this module supports decoding only.
SPEED
Since this module uses XS, it is really fast except for uri_escape("noop").
Regexp which is used in URI::Escape is really fast for non-matching but slows down
significantly when it has to replace string.
