I'd also love to work on this for my project over at the Fuss / Simply be http://www.thefuss.co.uk/simply-contact-number ---------------------------------------- Feature #12867: Add ability to check validity of a URL https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/12867#change-61007 * Author: Shlok Srivastava * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: ---------------------------------------- Hi! Going through the URI module of Ruby, it was obvious that we can check the validity of a URI by using URI.regexp . However, I found out there is no way we can accurately check for a valid URL by using the URI module. Won't it be better if there was a built in method in the URI module that could check for the validity of a URL or a URN as well ? This is just a suggestion and feel free to close it if this doesn't seems like something that should be implemented. :) PS- If you feel this can or should be implemented, I would love to work on it. ;) Thank you. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
