This URI scheme provides mechanisms to generate a unique base URI to represent the root of the archive, so that relative URI references in a bundled resource can be resolved within the archive without having to extract the archive content on the local file system. . An arcp URI can be used for purposes of isolation (e.g. when consuming multiple archives), security constraints (avoiding “climb out” from the archive), or for externally identiyfing sub-resources referenced by hypermedia formats. . Examples: - ``arcp://uuid,32a423d6-52ab-47e3-a9cd-54f418a48571/doc.html`` - ``arcp://uuid,b7749d0b-0e47-5fc4-999d-f154abe68065/pics/`` - ``arcp://ni,sha-256;F-34D4TUeOfG0selz7REKRDo4XePkewPeQYtjL3vQs0/`` - ``arcp://name,gallery.example.org/`` . The different forms of URI authority_ in arcp URIs can be used depending on which uniqueness constraints to apply when addressing an archive. See the arcp specification (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-soilandreyes-arcp-02) for details. . Note that this library only provides mechanisms to *generate* and *parse* arcp URIs, and do *not* integrate with any particular archive or URL handling modules like "zipfile" or "urllib.request".
