A module to manipulate search part of URLs (querystring)
npm install search-params> A module to manipulate search part of URLs (querystring). Created to externalise some code shared by path-parser and route-node.
#### parse:
Parse a querystring and returns an object of parameters. See options below for available options. Optional generic type can be provided.
#### build:
Build a querystring from a list of parameters. Optional generic type can be provided.
#### omit: (path: string, paramsToOmit: string[], opts?: IOptions) => IOmitResponse
Remove a list of parameters (names) from a querystring, and returns an object containing removedParams and querystring.
#### keep: (path: string, paramsToKeep: string[], opts?: IOptions) => IKeepResponse
Keep a list of parameters (names) from a querystring, and returns an object containing keptParams and querystring.
All options are optional.
- arrayFormat: Specifies how arrays should be stringified
- 'none' (default): no brackets or indexes are added to query parameter names ('role=member&role=admin')
- 'brackets: brackets are added to query parameter names ('role[]=member&role[]=admin')
- 'index': brackets and indexes are added to query parameter names ('role[0]=member&role[1]=admin')
- booleanFormat: specifies how boolean values are stringified and parsed
- 'none' (default): booleans are stringified to strings ('istrue=true&isfalse=false')
- 'empty-true': same as 'none' except true values are stringified without value ('istrue&isfalse=false'). If you choose this boolean format, make sure to change the value of 'nullFormat'.
- 'string': same as 'none' but 'true' and 'false' are parsed as booleans
- 'unicode': true and false are displayed with unicode characters, and parsed as booleans ('istrue=✓&isfalse=✗')
- nullFormat: specifies how null values are stringified and parsed
- 'default' (default): null values are stringified without equal sign and value ('isnull')
- 'string': null values are stringified to 'null' ('isnull=null') and parsed as null values
- 'hidden': null values are not stringified
For more examples, look at the tests.
