toQueryParams :: String |
This method is realy targeted at parsing query strings (hence the default value of "&" for the separator argument).
For this reason, it does not consider anything that is either before a question mark (which signals the beginning of a query string) or beyond the hash symbol ("#"), and runs decodeURIComponent() on each parameter/value pair.
toQueryParams() also aggregates the values of identical keys into an array of values.
Note that parameters which do not have a specified value will be set to undefined.
Examples
'section=blog&id=45'.toQueryParams(); // -> {section: 'blog', id: '45'}
'section=blog;id=45'.toQueryParams(); // -> {section: 'blog', id: '45'}
'http://www.example.com?section=blog&id=45#comments'.toQueryParams(); // -> {section: 'blog', id: '45'}
'section=blog&tag=javascript&tag=prototype&tag=doc'.toQueryParams(); // -> {section: 'blog', tag: ['javascript', 'prototype', 'doc']}
'tag=ruby on rails'.toQueryParams(); // -> {tag: 'ruby%20on%20rails'}
'id=45&raw'.toQueryParams(); // -> {id: '45', raw: undefined} |
