Synopsis

new($uri, [$scheme])

Constructor. $ uri is given as an argument with the optional $ scheme. new removes additional whitespace, double quotes, and arrows from the URL. $ scheme is used only when $ str is a relative URI; it is a simple string that denotes the scheme or an absolute URI object. $ str will be treated like a generic URI if $ scheme isn’t defined.
