Regexp::Common::URI::fUserpContributed Perl DocumRegexp::Common::URI::ftp(3pm)

NAME
       Regexp::Common::URI::ftp -- Returns a pattern for FTP URIs.

SYNOPSIS
           use Regexp::Common qw /URI/;

           while (<>) {
               /$RE{URI}{FTP}/       and  print "Contains an FTP URI.\n";
           }

DESCRIPTION
   $RE{URI}{FTP}{-type}{-password};
       Returns a regex for FTP URIs. Note: FTP URIs are not formally defined.
       RFC 1738 defines FTP URLs, but parts of that RFC have been obsoleted by
       RFC 2396. However, the differences between RFC 1738 and RFC 2396 are
       such that they aren't applicable straightforwardly to FTP URIs.

       There are two main problems:

       Passwords.
           RFC 1738 allowed an optional username and an optional password
           (separated by a colon) in the FTP URL. Hence, colons were not
           allowed in either the username or the password. RFC 2396 strongly
           recommends passwords should not be used in URIs. It does allow for
           userinfo instead. This userinfo part may contain colons, and hence
           contain more than one colon. The regexp returned follows the RFC
           2396 specification, unless the {-password} option is given; then
           the regex allows for an optional username and password, separated
           by a colon.

       The ;type specifier.
           RFC 1738 does not allow semi-colons in FTP path names, because a
           semi-colon is a reserved character for FTP URIs. The semi-colon is
           used to separate the path from the option type specifier. However,
           in RFC 2396, paths consist of slash separated segments, and each
           segment is a semi-colon separated group of parameters.
           Straigthforward application of RFC 2396 would mean that a trailing
           type specifier couldn't be distinguished from the last segment of
           the path having a two parameters, the last one starting with type=.
           Therefore we have opted to disallow a semi-colon in the path part
           of an FTP URI.

           Furthermore, RFC 1738 allows three values for the type specifier,
           A, I and D (either upper case or lower case). However, the internet
           draft about FTP URIs [DRAFT-FTP-URL] (which expired in May 1997)
           notes the lack of consistent implementation of the D parameter and
           drops D from the set of possible values. We follow this practise;
           however, RFC 1738 behaviour can be archieved by using the -type =
           "[ADIadi]"> parameter.

       FTP URIs have the following syntax:

           "ftp:" "//" [ userinfo "@" ] host [ ":" port ]
                       [ "/" path [ ";type=" value ]]

       When using {-password}, we have the syntax:

           "ftp:" "//" [ user [ ":" password ] "@" ] host [ ":" port ]
                       [ "/" path [ ";type=" value ]]

       Under "{-keep}", the following are returned:

       $1  The complete URI.

       $2  The scheme.

       $3  The userinfo, or if {-password} is used, the username.

       $4  If {-password} is used, the password, else "undef".

       $5  The hostname or IP address.

       $6  The port number.

       $7  The full path and type specification, including the leading slash.

       $8  The full path and type specification, without the leading slash.

       $9  The full path, without the type specification nor the leading
           slash.

       $10 The value of the type specification.
