Difference with path-to-regexp v8

Open vitalets opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

What is the issue with the URL Pattern Standard?

I've discovered that path-to-regexp v8 dropped support of ? and + parameter modifiers. Will URLPattern spec follow this change or indicate the difference somewhere in the docs?

Wondering the same thing. How stable is the URLPattern API?

It seems like there are several open questions:

  • ReDos (which is the reason why path-to-regexp dropped regex in v8)

  • Slow on the server https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/2286#issuecomment-1454267759

URLPattern seems to become the standard as it is right now.

From https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp/issues/349#issuecomment-2661004096

I decided to adopt URLPattern now that it has become the standard for the web.
