urllib.parse — Parse URLs into components — Python 3.14.2 documentation#urllib.parse.urljoin

urllib.parse.urljoin(base, url, allow_fragments=True)

Construct a full (“absolute”) URL by combining a “base URL” (base) with another URL (url). Informally, this uses components of the base URL, in particular the addressing scheme, the network location and (part of) the path, to provide missing components in the relative URL. For example:

>>> from urllib.parse import urljoin
>>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html', 'FAQ.html')
'http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/FAQ.html'

The allow_fragments argument has the same meaning and default as for urlsplit().

Note: If url is an absolute URL (that is, it starts with // or scheme://), the url ’s hostname and/or scheme will be present in the result. For example:

>>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html',
...         '//www.python.org/%7Eguido')
'http://www.python.org/%7Eguido'

If you do not want that behavior, preprocess the url with urlsplit() and urlunsplit(), removing possible scheme and netloc parts.

Warning: Because an absolute URL may be passed as the url parameter, it is generally not secure to use urljoin with an attacker-controlled url. For example in, urljoin("https://website.com/users/", username), if username can contain an absolute URL, the result of urljoin will be the absolute URL.

Changed in version 3.5: Behavior updated to match the semantics defined in RFC 3986.
