string_split

Description:

public static void string_split (string string, string out_cnc_params, string out_provider, string out_username, string? out_password)

Extract the provider, connection parameters, username and password from string.

in string, the various parts are strings which are expected to be encoded using an RFC 1738 compliant encoding. If they are specified, the returned provider, username and password strings are correctly decoded.

For example all the following connection strings:

PostgreSQL://meme:pass@DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://meme@DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server;PASSWORD=pass
PostgreSQL://meme@DB_NAME=mydb;PASSWORD=pass;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://meme@PASSWORD=pass;DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server;USERNAME=meme;PASSWORD=pass
PostgreSQL://DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server;PASSWORD=pass;USERNAME=meme
PostgreSQL://DB_NAME=mydb;USERNAME=meme;PASSWORD=pass;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://PASSWORD=pass;USERNAME=meme;DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://:pass@USERNAME=meme;DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server
PostgreSQL://:pass@DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server;USERNAME=meme

will return the following new strings (double quotes added here to delimit strings):

out_cnc_params: "DB_NAME=mydb;HOST=server"
out_provider: "PostgreSQL"
out_username: "meme"
out_password: "pass"

Parameters:

string	a string in the "[<provider>://][<username>[:<password>]@]<connection_params>" form
out_cnc_params	a place to store the new string containing the <connection_params> part
out_provider	a place to store the new string containing the <provider> part
out_username	a place to store the new string containing the <username> part
out_password	a place to store the new string containing the <password> part, or `null`
