Special Characters in password lead to "too many colons in address" error #49

Hi, I have set a password for redis using password generators. it contains special characters (but not colon). But when I try:

redis-inventory inventory redis://password$%^*@localhost:63795/3

I get this error:

INF Start scanning FTL Can't create redis client error="dial tcp: address redis://:password$%^*@localhost:63795/3: too many colons in address"

what should I do ?

You can work around this,

$ python3
>>> import urllib.parse
>>> urllib.parse.quote('sp#c!al ch@rs')
'sp%23c%21al%20ch%40rs'

$ docker run --rm dclg/redis-inventory inventory --output=chart redis://:'sp%23c%21al%20ch%40rs'@my.redis.server

I am also getting an error about "too many colons in address" but I don't have any special characters in my password. It's all alphanumeric, of the format: rediss://user:pass@host-with-dashes.and.tld:port. Interestingly, the error message echos back the connection URL but it has appended an extra colon onto the end of it, so maybe there's a trailing colon being added somewhere?
