I can successfully parse my URLs. However, I'd like to modify a part then reassemble them. However, like tuples, the parts appear to be unmodifiable
>>> URL = 'http://foo/path1/path2/?fragment=foo' >>> import urlparse >>> u = urlparse.urlparse(URL) >>> u ParseResult(scheme='http', netloc='foo', path='/path1/path2/', params='', query='fragment=foo', fragment='') >>> u.query 'fragment=foo' >>> u.query = 'blah=baz' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: can't set attribute The best I've been able to come up with is >>> u = urlparse.urlsplit(URL) >>> lst = list(u) # can't manipulate the tuple directly >>> lst[3] = "bar=baz" # 3 = query-string index >>> urlparse.urlunsplit(lst) 'http://foo/path1/path2/?bar=baz' It takes knowing that "3" is the magic index (documented, but not given some named-constant in urlparse) for the query-string. Is there some better, clearer, or more Pythonic way to do this? -tkc (sorry if this is a dupe post, as I got an SMTP bounce/error from mail.python.org stating "service currently unavailable") -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
