@request/qs

Wrapper for the [qs][qs] and [querystring][querystring] modules.

> See [@request/core][request-core] for more details.

defaults

By default @request/qs uses the [qs][qs] module:

``js
var qs = require('@request/qs')

qs.parse(str)
qs.stringify(obj)
`

qs options

`js
var qs = require('@request/qs')

var options = {
// parse options
parse: {
qs: {sep: ';', eq: ':'}
},
// stringify options
stringify: {
qs: {sep: ';', eq: ':'}
}
}

qs.parse(str, options)
qs.stringify(obj, options)
`

using querystring

To use the [querystring][querystring] module instead, set the parse and stringify option keys to querystring:

`js
var qs = require('@request/qs')

var options = {
parse: {querystring: {}},
stringify: {querystring: {}}
}

qs.parse(str, options)
qs.stringify(obj, options)
`

querystring options

Here sep and eq are the second and third argument for the [querystring's][querystring] parse and stringify methods. The options key is the forth object argument:

`js
var qs = require('@request/qs')

var options = {
// parse options
parse: {
querystring: {sep: ';', eq: ':', options: {}}
},
// stringify options
stringify: {
querystring: {sep: ';', eq: ':', options: {}}
}
}

qs.parse(str, options)
qs.stringify(obj, options)
``

> The stringified result is [RFC3986][rfc3986] encoded.
