What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A simple, lightweight JavaScript URL parser that breaks URLs into components like protocol, host, path, and query parameters. Available on NPM and as a jQuery plugin, it has been maintained since 2011.

Use cases

  • parse a url into its parts in javascript
  • get query string parameters from a url
  • extract the hostname or path from a url
  • manipulate url components in the browser
  • lightweight url parsing without a big dependency

When to choose

  • you need a tiny, dependency-free URL parser for browser or Node
  • you want a simple API for reading and modifying URL parts
  • you're maintaining a legacy jQuery-based project

When to avoid

  • you need WHATWG-compliant URL handling (use the native URL API)
  • you need advanced features like IDN or punycode handling
  • you want an actively developed library with frequent updates
