Fetch a message by using the url

I know we can get a message with channel and message ID, but maybe it exists a methods to get from url directly, instead of parsing the URL (like regex) and get channel and after the message ? (It's a general question but in case of : - discord.js : discord.js@14.14.1 - node : v18.18.0 )

  const url = 'https://discord.com/channels/123456789012345678/123456789012345678/123456789012345678';

  const url = 'https://discord.com/channels/123456789012345678/123456789012345678/123456789012345678';

https://discord.com/channels/[guildID]/[channelID]/[messageID]

Yeah, but here is a function to get the message from the URL ? For the moment, I use like:

const channel = await interaction.guild?.channels.fetch(managerID);
const message = await thread.messages.fetch(userMessageId);

const channel = await interaction.guild?.channels.fetch(managerID);
const message = await thread.messages.fetch(userMessageId);

I want to know if there is a better "direct" methods (without using cache)

function parseDiscordUrl(url) {
    const urlObject = new URL(url);
    const path = urlObject.pathname;
    const parts = path.split('/');
    return {
        guildID: parts[2],
        channelID: parts[3],
        messageID: parts[4]
    };
}

function parseDiscordUrl(url) {
    const urlObject = new URL(url);
    const path = urlObject.pathname;
    const parts = path.split('/');
    return {
        guildID: parts[2],
        channelID: parts[3],
        messageID: parts[4]
