  $ trurl "https://fake.host/hello#frag" --set user=::moo:: --json
  [
    {
      "url": "https://%3a%3amoo%3a%3a@fake.host/hello#frag",
      "scheme": "https",
      "user": "::moo::",
      "host": "fake.host",
      "port": "443",
      "path": "/hello",
      "fragment": "frag"
    }
  ]

  $ trurl "https://example.com?search=hello&utm_source=tracker" --trim query="utm_*"
  https://example.com/?search=hello

Install

On Linux :

It's quite easy to compile the C source with GCC :

$ make
cc  -W -Wall -pedantic -g   -c -o trurl.o trurl.c
cc   trurl.o  -lcurl -o trurl

Prerequisites

Development files of libcurl (e.g. libcurl4-openssl-dev or libcurl4-gnutls-dev) are needed for compilation. Requires libcurl version 7.62.0 or newer (the first libcurl to ship the URL parsing API).

trurl also uses CURLUPART_ZONEID added in libcurl 7.81.0 and curl_url_strerror() added in libcurl 7.80.0

It would certainly be possible to make trurl work with older libcurl versions if someone wanted to.
