URN
A Rust crate for handling URNs. Parsing and comparison is done according to the spec (meaning only part of the URN is used for equality checks). Some RFCs define per-namespace lexical equivalence rules, those aren't taken into account here. no_std
support is available if you disable the default "std" feature. alloc
is needed, but the Urn
type is a wrapper around String
and should only use a single allocation (but I haven't checked). You can even construct a Urn
from your own String
by using TryFrom
, that way it shouldn't allocate at all.
URNs have a surprising amount of obscure details to the point I'm not sure at this point if other URN parsers can be trusted! Granted, there's very little of them because almost nobody really needs URNs...
