+# @modular-matrix/parse-mxc
+
+A utility library for (validating and) parsing an MXC URI into an object.
+
+Part of the [Modular Matrix](https://modular-matrix.cryto.net/) toolkit, a set of modular libraries for working with the [Matrix](https://matrix.org/) protocol.
+
+## Example
+
+```js
+const parseMXC = require("@modular-matrix/parse-mxc");
+
+let parsed = parseMXC.parse("mxc://pixie.town/qBpNzYpOknBxnSdcbFWrbqWT");
+
+console.log(parsed); // { homeserver: 'pixie.town', id: 'qBpNzYpOknBxnSdcbFWrbqWT' }
+
+let parsed = parseMXC("http://example.com/"); // throws a parseMXC.ParsingError
+```
+
+## API
+
+### parseMXC.parse(uri)
+
+Parses a string containing an MXC URI.
+
+- __uri:__ The URI string to parse.
+
+Upon successful parsing, returns an object with the following structure:
+
+- __homeserver:__ The hostname of the homeserver encoded in the URI. Note that this is the *source* HS for the content; when eg. generating thumbnails, the request for that will usually be made to your *own* HS, and the hostname in this object only becomes part of the request path.
+- __id:__ The MXC ID, identifying the specific piece of content.
+
+The returned object can be passed into other *Modular Matrix* libraries that expect an MXC object.
+
+If the provided URI is *not* a valid MXC URI, a `parseMXC.ParsingError` will be thrown.
+
+### parseMXC.ParsingError
+
+An error type (constructor) representing a failure to parse an MXC URI, due to the URI being invalid in some way.
+
+This is an error type that inherits from `Error`, and so can be used with `instanceof` (and mechanisms based on it, such as Bluebird's filtered `.catch`) to detect errors of this specific type.
