ruby-uriparser

Gem Version Build Status Ruby Style Guide

Ruby-uriparser is a wrapper for uriparser C library which is fast (linear input length time complexity), approximatelly 7.5x faster than the standard ruby URI library with a low memory consumption.

It is a fairly reasonable hypothesis to consider that all Ruby Rack applications will call, at least once, the URI.parse method for each http request, so this simple optimization can bring a significant impact on a high load environment. (See Benchmark)

Usage

require 'uriparser'

UriParser.parse('https://localhost:9000/path/?a=1#x') # return UriParser::URI object

If you want to override the URI class just include the following line in your code:

# Will override URI#parse and Kernel#URI methods
require 'uriparser/uri_gem'

Benchmark

The following numbers were computed for 100,000 URI.parse calls using the Ruby 2.6 benchmark library in a Mac OS X (10.15.6)/ 2,7 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5/ 16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3:
