Golang net/url.Parse() and ParseRequestURI() functions usage example

 package main

 import (
  "fmt"
  "net/url"
 )

 func main() {

  rawURL := "http://username:password@searchengine.com:8080/testpath/?q=socketloop.com#TestFunc"

  parsedURL, err := url.Parse(rawURL)
  if err != nil {
 panic(err)
  }

  fmt.Println(parsedURL)
  fmt.Println("Fragment : ", parsedURL.Fragment)

  parsedURI, err := url.ParseRequestURI(rawURL)
  if err != nil {
 panic(err)
  }

  fmt.Println(parsedURI)
  fmt.Println("Fragment : ", parsedURI.Fragment) // see the diff? no fragment for ParseRequestURI

 }

Output :

http://username:password@searchengine.com:8080/testpath/?q=socketloop.com#TestFunc

Fragment : TestFunc

http://username:password@searchengine.com:8080/testpath/?q=socketloop.com#TestFunc
