Python url matching for querystring

Question

I need to match below two urls which are same. Only difference is between the order of query string parameters.

domain.com/base-path/sub_path/aaa?**bb=cc&dd=ee**

domain.com/base-path/sub_path/aaa?**dd=ee&bb=cc**

Is there any library in Python which could do this? If not what would be the best way to do it?

As of now I believe splitting and storing in dictionary and comparing would be the best way.

Please advise.

Answer 1

Use urllib.parse library

from urllib import parse


parsed = parse.urlsplit('domain.com/base-path/sub_path/aaa?bb=cc&dd=ee')
query_dict1 = parse.parse_qs(parsed.query)

parsed = parse.urlsplit('domain.com/base-path/sub_path/aaa?dd=ee&bb=cc')
query_dict2 = parse.parse_qs(p2.query)

print(query_dict1 == query_dict2)
