Question

I’ve created a function that can build nested urls like so. I was wondering if there existed a more mainstream library to build urls / uris like this. I’d rather use a standard.

utility.urlConstruct({
    "scheme": "https://",
    "domain": "domain.com",
    "path": "/login",
    "query":{
        "user":"thomasreggi",
        "from":utility.urlConstruct({
            "scheme": "https://",
            "domain": "redirect.com",
            "path": "/funstuff",
        }),
    }
});

Spits out

https://domain.com/login?user=thomasreggi&from=https%3A%2F%2Fredirect.com%2Ffunstuff

Answer 1

The correct answer is node’s built in URL library.

Specifically

url.format(urlObj)
