Overview
|
||
========
|
||
|
||
[](https://ci.testling.com/lydell/resolve-url)
|
||
|
||
Like Node.js’ [`path.resolve`]/[`url.resolve`] for the browser.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
var resolveUrl = require("resolve-url")
|
||
|
||
window.location
|
||
// https://example.com/articles/resolving-urls/edit
|
||
|
||
resolveUrl("remove")
|
||
// https://example.com/articles/resolving-urls/remove
|
||
|
||
resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js")
|
||
// https://example.com/static/scripts/app.js
|
||
|
||
// Imagine /static/scripts/app.js contains `//# sourceMappingURL=../source-maps/app.js.map`
|
||
resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js", "../source-maps/app.js.map")
|
||
// https://example.com/static/source-maps/app.js.map
|
||
|
||
resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js", "../source-maps/app.js.map", "../coffee/app.coffee")
|
||
// https://example.com/static/coffee/app.coffee
|
||
|
||
resolveUrl("//cdn.example.com/jquery.js")
|
||
// https://cdn.example.com/jquery.js
|
||
|
||
resolveUrl("http://foo.org/")
|
||
// http://foo.org/
|
||
```
|

Installation
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
- `npm install resolve-url`
|
||
- `bower install resolve-url`
|
||
- `component install lydell/resolve-url`
|
||
|
||
Works with CommonJS, AMD and browser globals, through UMD.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Usage
|
||
=====
|
||
|
||
### `resolveUrl(...urls)` ###
|
||
|
||
Pass one or more urls. Resolves the last one to an absolute url, using the
|
||
previous ones and `window.location`.
|
||
|
||
It’s like starting out on `window.location`, and then clicking links with the
|
||
urls as `href` attributes in order, from left to right.
|
||
|
||
Unlike Node.js’ [`path.resolve`], this function always goes through all of the
|
||
arguments, from left to right. `path.resolve` goes from right to left and only
|
||
in the worst case goes through them all. Should that matter.
|
||
|
||
Actually, the function is _really_ like clicking a lot of links in series: An
|
||
actual `<a>` gets its `href` attribute set for each url! This means that the
|
||
url resolution of the browser is used, which makes this module really
|
||
light-weight.
|
||
|
||
Also note that this functions deals with urls, not paths, so in that respect it
|
||
has more in common with Node.js’ [`url.resolve`]. But the arguments are more
|
||
like [`path.resolve`].
|
||
|
||
[`path.resolve`]: http://nodejs.org/api/path.html#path_path_resolve_from_to
|
||
[`url.resolve`]: http://nodejs.org/api/url.html#url_url_resolve_from_to
|
||
|
||
|
||
Tests
|
||
=====
|
||
|
||
Run `npm test`, which lints the code and then gives you a link to open in a
|
||
browser of choice (using `testling`).
