urlsplit

Synopsis

urlsplit(url_string,default_scheme='',allow_fragments=True)

Analyzes url_string and returns a tuple with five string items: scheme, location, path, query, and fragment. default_scheme is the first item when the url_string lacks a scheme. When allow_fragments is False, the tuple’s last item is always '', whether or not url_string has a fragment. Items corresponding to missing parts are always ''. For example:

urlparse.urlsplit(
    'http://www.python.org:80/faq.cgi?src=fie')
# Result is: 
# ('http','www.python.org:80','/faq.cgi','src=fie','')
