Bug#794151: ITP: python-uritools -- RFC 3986 compliant replacement for urlparse



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Stein Magnus Jodal <stein.magnus@jodal.no>

* Package name    : python-uritools
  Version         : 1.0.1
  Upstream Author : Thomas Kemmer <tkemmer@computer.org>
* URL             : https://github.com/tkem/uritools

  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : RFC 3986 compliant replacement for urlparse

This module defines RFC 3986 compliant replacements for the most
commonly used functions of the Python 2.7 Standard Library urlparse and
Python 3 urllib.parse modules.

For various reasons, the Python 2 urlparse module is not compliant with
current Internet standards, does not include Unicode support, and is
generally unusable with proprietary URI schemes. Python 3's urllib.parse
improves on Unicode support, but the other issues still remain.

This module aims to provide fully RFC 3986 compliant replacements for
some commonly used functions found in urlparse and urllib.parse, plus
additional functions for conveniently composing URIs from their
individual components.

python-uritools is a dependency for mopidy-local-sqlite (ITP #794143).
