Primary LanguageGo

decode-uri

A CLI URI decoder for ENV variables. Designed to split out DATABASE_URL style env variables into discrete parts.

Example

$ export DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@host.com:5432/path?k=v#f
$ decode-uri DATABASE_URL
export DATABASE_SCHEME=postgres
export DATABASE_USERNAME=user
export DATABASE_PASSWORD=pass
export DATABASE_HOST=host.com
export DATABASE_PORT=5432
export DATABASE_PATH=/path
export DATABASE_FRAGMENT=f
export DATABASE_QUERY_STRING=k=v

Parsed URI elements are returned formatted as export statements, if they exist, prefixed with the value of the input env string before the first underscore.

Usage

To get the parsed URI into your ENV you can do something like this:

$ eval "$(decode-uri DATABASE_URL)"

This command with exit with a non-zero exit status if a URI can't be parsed.
