Node DOM URLs

A partial implementation of the W3C URL Spec Draft for Node building on top of URIjs.

If you find incompatibilities, please report them. Error handling is currently very different from the spec.

Installation

npm install dom-urls

Example

var URL = require('dom-urls');

var url = new URL('relative', 'http://example.com/sub/');

url.protocol; // 'http:'
url.hostname; // 'example.com'
url.pathname; // '/sub/relative/'

url.host = 'example.net:8080';
url.port; // '8080'

Why urijs instead of url?

I tried it first, but Node's own URL module doesn't propagate changes, so changing the host doesn't affect the port and vice-versa and I didn't want to reimplement all of that myself.
