Issue #19266 has been updated by gareth (Gareth Adams). After a couple of weeks with no reply I wanted to ask if I could get at least one comment on this issue? A quick summary of the issue: * In 2014, `URI` was updated to use a new RFC3986-compliant parser by default instead of the previous RFC2396 parser. * Two methods inside `URI::Generic` (`build` and `build2`) were **not** updated to use the new parser, they are hardcoded to the old parser. * These two methods are used by subclasses like `URI::HTTP`, for building URIs from parts: `URI::HTTP.build(host: "foobar.com")` * The main significant difference is that the old parser fails with hostnames including underscores, which are now valid. This issue was to fix these two methods, which are probably rarely used in comparison to `URI()` but are still useful. * The issue has a patch attached. * The patch resolves the issue, includes a test, and doesn't fail any other tests. * The total diff is just +10 -6. This is a very minor issue, which is probably why it's gone unnoticed for 8 years, but the fix is also very isolated and hopefully very low risk. Thanks, Gareth ---------------------------------------- Bug #19266: URI::Generic should use URI::RFC3986_PARSER instead of URI::DEFAULT_PARSER https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19266#change-101251 * Author: gareth (Gareth Adams) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.1.3p185 (2022-11-24 revision 1a6b16756e) [arm64-darwin21] * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- In June 2014, [`uri/common` was updated][1] to introduce a RFC3986-compliant parser (`URI::RFC3986_PARSER`) as an alternative to the previous RFC2396 parser, and common methods like `URI()` were updated to use that new parser by default. The only methods in `common` not updated were [`URI.extract` and `URI.regexp`][2] which are marked as obsolete. (The old parser was kept in the `DEFAULT_PARSER` constant despite it not being the default for those methods, presumably for backward compatibility.) However, similar [methods called on `URI::Generic`][3] were never updated to use this new parser. This means that methods like `URI::Generic.build` fail when given input that succeeds normally, and this also affects subclasses like URI::HTTP: ``` $ pry -r uri -r uri/common -r uri/generic [1] pry(main)> URI::Generic.build(host: "underscore_host.example") URI::InvalidComponentError: bad component(expected host component): underscore_host.example from /Users/gareth/.asdf/installs/ruby/3.1.3/lib/ruby/3.1.0/uri/generic.rb:591:in `check_host' [2] pry(main)> URI::HTTP.build(host: "underscore_host.example") URI::InvalidComponentError: bad component(expected host component): underscore_host.example from /Users/gareth/.asdf/installs/ruby/3.1.3/lib/ruby/3.1.0/uri/generic.rb:591:in `check_host' [3] pry(main)> URI("http://underscore_host.example") => #<URI::HTTP http://underscore_host.example> ``` `URI::Generic.new` allows a configurable `parser` positional argument to override the class' default parser, but other factory methods like `.build` don't allow this override. Arguably this doesn't cause problems because at least in the case above, the URI can be built with the polymorphic constructor, but having the option to build URIs from explicit named parts is useful, and leaving the outdated functionality in the `Generic` class is ambiguous. It's possible that the whole Generic class and its subclasses aren't intended to be used directly how I'm intending here, but there's nothing I could see that suggested this is the case. I'm not aware of the entire list of differences between RFC2396 and RFC3986. The relevant difference here is that in RFC2396 an individual segment of a host ([`domainlabel`s][4]) could only be `alphanum | alphanum *( alphanum | "-" ) alphanum`, whereas RFC3986 allows [hostnames][5] to include any of `ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"`. It's possible that other differences might cause issues for developers, but since this has gone over 8 years without anyone else caring about this, this is definitely not especially urgent.

I'm in favor of this change. However, be aware that uri is maintained at https://github.com/ruby/uri . Could you please submit a pull request to that repository?
