I don't know of a specific implementation that does the same, but 
I can point you to some spots you might look into:

std.path: https://dlang.org/phobos/std_path.html
std.uri: https://dlang.org/phobos/std_uri.html

vibe.inet.url: http://vibed.org/api/vibe.inet.url/URL
vibe.core.path: http://vibed.org/api/vibe.core.path/


I really feel like vibed's documentation api site is missing some 
nice examples of usage to get a quick feel of the provided api.
