Hi! 👋
Thank you so much for a wonderful project! We are using it in GoogleChrome/lighthouse in one of the SEO audits.

Short story: robots-parser uses some 'url' module APIs that are deprecated since Node v6, lets update them!
Long story: Lighthouse runs in both node and browser environments. In the browser we use the native URL object to polyfill
require('url'). Unfortunately, robots-parser was using APIs that are not compatible with the browser's URL object (namelyparseandpath). Thankfully, these APIs are also deprecated in Node, so it does make sense to update them.new URL()we are dropping support for Node v4 here (which is in the maintenance mode till April 2018).
