2.4.0

Secure Passwords

Method toString now supports option passwordHash, to generate a connection string with the password hashed, for secure logging. The option also accepts a string, to use a symbol other than the default #.

const cs = new ConnectionString(':pass123@');
//=> {password: 'pass123'}

cs.toString({passwordHash: true});
//=> ':######@'
// cannot be parsed again, because # is not a valid symbol in the password

cs.toString({passwordHash: '*'});
//=> ':******@'
// can be parsed again, because * is allowed in the password directly

2.3.0

Adding support for sub-protocols.

I've seen some unique cases of people using sub-protocols, with : as the separator:

one:two:three://

To whatever end, this library now allows such protocol names, and constructs them back in the same way, without encoding symbol :

And if you need to parse those, you can do protocol.split(':') to get the list of protocols specified.

2.2.0

Adding support for Virtual Properties - hostname + port, for compatibility with old parsers that did not support multiple hosts.

2.1.0

Implemented #13:

• Symbol + is now decoded as space for every part of the URL, not just for parameters.
• Option plusForSpace now applies to every part of the URL, not just the parameters.

2.0.1

Minor code refactoring + documentation updates.
