Suggestion :u to detect url

{:u} to detect http[s}://kjjhh.com/asdhfk/sdfh/adsf?dsf=jkk

Great library!!!

Wouldn't it be better to provide a readable name, like "{:Url}" or "{:url} instead of "{:u}" ?!?

NOTE THAT: You can already use that by registering your own type. You just need to figure out what the regex pattern should look like.

Here's how you would do that yourself:

from parse import parse, with_pattern

regex_url = r"https?:\/\/(www\.)?[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%._\+~#=]{1,256}\.[a-zA-Z0-9()]{1,6}\b([-a-zA-Z0-9()@:%_\+.~#?&//=]*)"

@with_pattern(regex_url, regex_group_count=1)
def url(url):
    return url

parse("{:url}", "http://www.hello-world.com", dict(url=url)))
