# `uri_parser` – Tools to parse and validate a MongoDB URI

Tools to parse and validate a MongoDB URI.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `parse_host`(entity, default_port=27017)

  Validates a host string

  Returns a 2-tuple of host followed by port where port is default_port if it wasn’t specified in the string.

  Parameters: | entity: A host or host:port string where host could be a hostname or IP address. default_port: The port number to use when one wasn’t specified in entity.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `parse_ipv6_literal_host`(entity, default_port)

  Validates an IPv6 literal host:port string.

  Returns a 2-tuple of IPv6 literal followed by port where port is default_port if it wasn’t specified in entity.

  Parameters: | entity: A string that represents an IPv6 literal enclosed in braces (e.g. ‘[::1]’ or ‘[::1]:27017’). default_port: The port number to use when one wasn’t specified in entity.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `parse_uri`(uri, default_port=27017)

  Parse and validate a MongoDB URI.

  Returns a dict of the form:

      {
          'nodelist': <list of (host, port) tuples>,
          'username': <username> or None,
          'password': <password> or None,
          'database': <database name> or None,
          'collection': <collection name> or None,
          'options': <dict of MongoDB URI options>
      }

  Parameters: | uri: The MongoDB URI to parse. default_port: The port number to use when one wasn’t specified for a host in the URI.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `parse_userinfo`(userinfo)

  Validates the format of user information in a MongoDB URI. Reserved characters like ‘:’, ‘/’, ‘+’ and ‘@’ must be escaped following RFC 2396.

  Returns a 2-tuple containing the unescaped username followed by the unescaped password.

  Paramaters: | userinfo: A string of the form <username>:<password>

  Changed in version 2.2: Now uses urllib.unquote_plus so + characters must be escaped.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `split_hosts`(hosts, default_port=27017)

  Takes a string of the form host1[:port],host2[:port]... and splits it into (host, port) tuples. If [:port] isn’t present the default_port is used.

  Returns a set of 2-tuples containing the host name (or IP) followed by port number.

  Parameters: | hosts: A string of the form host1[:port],host2[:port],... default_port: The port number to use when one wasn’t specified for a host.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `split_options`(opts)

  Takes the options portion of a MongoDB URI, validates each option and returns the options in a dictionary. The option names will be returned lowercase even if camelCase options are used.

  Parameters: | opt: A string representing MongoDB URI options.

`pymongo.uri_parser.` `validate_options`(opts)

  Validates and normalizes options passed in a MongoDB URI.

  Returns a new dictionary of validated and normalized options.

  Parameters: | opts: A dict of MongoDB URI options.
