Represents the path portion of a URL (not query parameters, fragment, protocol, port, etc.).
This helper lets you combine together path parts without worrying about having too many or too few slashes. These two examples will result in the same URL, even though the first example has trailing and leading slashes, and the second does not.
UrlPath.join [ "/blog/", "/post-1/" ]
|> UrlPath.toAbsolute
--> "/blog/post-1"
UrlPath.join [ "blog", "post-1" ]
|> UrlPath.toAbsolute
--> "/blog/post-1"
We can also safely join Strings that include multiple path parts, a single path part per string, or a mix of the two:
UrlPath.join [ "/articles/archive/", "1977", "06", "10", "post-1" ]
|> UrlPath.toAbsolute
--> "/articles/archive/1977/06/10/post-1"
List String
The path portion of the URL, normalized to ensure that path segments are joined with /
s in the right places (no doubled up or missing slashes).
join : UrlPath -> UrlPath
Turn a Path to a relative URL.
fromString : String -> UrlPath
Create a UrlPath from a path String.
UrlPath.fromString "blog/post-1/"
|> UrlPath.toAbsolute
|> Expect.equal "/blog/post-1"
toAbsolute : UrlPath -> String
Turn a UrlPath to an absolute URL (with no trailing slash).
toRelative : UrlPath -> String
Turn a UrlPath to a relative URL.
toSegments : String -> List String
