Nested Query Params
A TypeScript implementation of Rack's [query string parser]. Allows query strings to be expanded into "structural" types; objects, arrays, and string values are supported.
``shell`
npm i -D nested-query-params
`typescript
import { parseQuery, printQuery } from "nested-query-params";
// maps
const map = parseQuery("?foo[bar]=baz");
console.debug(map.foo.bar); // prints "baz"
// arrays
const list = parseQuery("?foo[]=bar&foo[]=baz");
console.debug(list.foo); // prints ["bar", "baz"]
// mixed
const mixed = parseQuery("?bar=baz&foo[bar][]=baz&foo[bar][]=42");
console.debug(mixed); // prints { bar: "baz", foo: { bar: ["baz", "42"] } }
// print
const simple = parseQuery("?foo[bar]=baz");
console.debug(printQuery(simple)); // prints "?foo[bar]=baz"
// print valid
const edited = { ...simple, foo: "bar" };
console.debug(printQuery(edited)); // prints "?foo=bar"
