The project is essentially a URL parsing library built with a primary focus on handling and parsing URLs, making it significantly easier for developers to extract specific components of a URL. It uses the popular 'url-parse' module, which provides extensive functionalities for URL parsing.

Functionality

Upon feeding a URL into the module's primary function, the software separates the URL into its various components, such as protocol, host, port, pathname, query, and fragment. This parsing functionality becomes critical when a developer needs to manipulate URLs or isolate particular sections from them.

The library offers more versatility by giving you the option of feeding in a base URL. In such cases, the input URL is considered relative to this base URL. This is crucial when handling relative URLs, i.e., URLs that are incomplete or relate to a certain web address.

isNull: The function returns null if the input is not a valid URL, which could be beneficial in validating and sanitizing URL inputs.

The parser argument allows users to specify a custom parsing function, which can override the default parsing behavior. This feature could be handy when the users have specific parsing requirements that are not covered by the standard parsing behavior.

The library is relatively simple but can significantly streamline tasks that involve handling and manipulating URLs and provide custom parsing methods to adequately cater to unique requirements.
