These subclasses add the attributes listed in the documentation for those functions, the encoding and decoding support described in the previous section, as well as an additional method\n\nReturn the re-combined version of the original URL as a string. This may differ from the original URL in that the scheme may be normalized to lower case and empty components may be dropped. Specifically, empty parameters, queries, and fragment identifiers will be removed unless the URL was parsed with missing_as_none=True.\n\nFor urldefrag results, only empty fragment identifiers will be removed. For urlsplit and urlparse results, all noted changes will be made to the URL returned by this method.\n\nThe result of this method remains unchanged if passed back through the original parsing function\n\nThe following classes provide the implementations of the structured parse results when operating on str objects\n\nConcrete class for urldefrag results containing str data. The encode method returns a DefragResultBytes instance.\n\nConcrete class for urlparse results containing str data. The encode method returns a ParseResultBytes instance.\n\nConcrete class for urlsplit results containing str data. The encode method returns a SplitResultBytes instance.\n\nThe following classes provide the implementations of the parse results when operating on bytes or bytearray objects\n\nConcrete class for urldefrag results containing bytes data. The decode method returns a DefragResult instance.\n\nConcrete class for urlparse results containing bytes data. The decode method returns a ParseResult instance.\n\nConcrete class for urlsplit results containing bytes data. The decode method returns a SplitResult instance.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
