The `uri-parser` module is a Node.js library for parsing Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), offering functions to break down URIs into components, complete URI definitions, and format them into well-formed strings. It is loosely based on Node.js's `url` module and uses Steven Levithan's `parseUri` function, though it is not fully RFC-3986 compliant. This project is ideal for developers needing basic URI parsing functionality in their Node.js applications.
