Always be careful with this option. - -```javascript -var protoObject = qs.parse('a[hasOwnProperty]=b', { allowPrototypes: true }); -assert.deepEqual(protoObject, { a: { hasOwnProperty: 'b' } }); -``` - -URI encoded strings work too: - -```javascript -assert.deepEqual(qs.parse('a%5Bb%5D=c'), { - a: { b: 'c' } -}); -``` - -You can also nest your objects, like `'foo[bar][baz]=foobarbaz'`: - -```javascript -assert.deepEqual(qs.parse('foo[bar][baz]=foobarbaz'), { - foo: { - bar: { - baz: 'foobarbaz' - } - } -}); -``` - -By default, when nesting objects **qs** will only parse up to 5 children deep. This means if you attempt to parse a string like -`'a[b][c][d][e][f][g][h][i]=j'` your resulting object will be: - -```javascript -var expected = { - a: { - b: { - c: { - d: { - e: { - f: { - '[g][h][i]': 'j' - } - } - } - } - } - } -}; -var string = 'a[b][c][d][e][f][g][h][i]=j'; -assert.deepEqual(qs.parse(string), expected); -``` - -This depth can be overridden by passing a `depth` option to `qs.parse(string, [options])`: - -```javascript -var deep = qs.parse('a[b][c][d][e][f][g][h][i]=j', { depth: 1 }); -assert.deepEqual(deep, { a: { b: { '[c][d][e][f][g][h][i]': 'j' } } }); -``` - -The depth limit helps mitigate abuse when **qs** is used to parse user input, and it is recommended to keep it a reasonably small number. - -For similar reasons, by default **qs** will only parse up to 1000 parameters. This can be overridden by passing a `parameterLimit` option: - -```javascript -var limited = qs.parse('a=b&c=d', { parameterLimit: 1 }); -assert.deepEqual(limited, { a: 'b' }); -``` - -To bypass the leading question mark, use `ignoreQueryPrefix`: - -```javascript -var prefixed = qs.parse('?a=b&c=d', { ignoreQueryPrefix: true }); -assert.deepEqual(prefixed, { a: 'b', c: 'd' }); -``` - -An optional delimiter can also be passed: - -```javascript -var delimited = qs.parse('a=b;c=d', { delimiter: ';' }); -assert.deepEqual(delimited, { a: 'b', c: 'd' }); -``` - -Delimiters can be a regular expression too: - -```javascript -var regexed = qs.parse('a=b;c=d,e=f', { delimiter: /[;,]/ }); -assert.deepEqual(regexed, { a: 'b', c: 'd', e: 'f' }); -``` - -Option `allowDots` can be used to enable dot notation: - -```javascript -var withDots = qs.parse('a.b=c', { allowDots: true }); -assert.deepEqual(withDots, { a: { b: 'c' } }); -``` - -### Parsing Arrays - -**qs** can also parse arrays using a similar `[]` notation: - -```javascript -var withArray = qs.parse('a[]=b&a[]=c'); -assert.deepEqual(withArray, { a: ['b', 'c'] }); -``` - -You may specify an index as well: - -```javascript -var withIndexes = qs.parse('a[1]=c&a[0]=b'); -assert.deepEqual(withIndexes, { a: ['b', 'c'] }); -``` - -Note that the only difference between an index in an array and a key in an object is that the value between the brackets must be a number -to create an array. When creating arrays with specific indices, **qs** will compact a sparse array to only the existing values preserving -their order: - -```javascript -var noSparse = qs.parse('a[1]=b&a[15]=c'); -assert.deepEqual(noSparse, { a: ['b', 'c'] }); -``` - -Note that an empty string is also a value, and will be preserved: - -```javascript -var withEmptyString = qs.parse('a[]=&a[]=b'); -assert.deepEqual(withEmptyString, { a: ['', 'b'] }); - -var withIndexedEmptyString = qs.parse('a[0]=b&a[1]=&a[2]=c'); -assert.deepEqual(withIndexedEmptyString, { a: ['b', '', 'c'] }); -``` - -**qs** will also limit specifying indices in an array to a maximum index of `20`. Any array members with an index of greater than `20` will -instead be converted to an object with the index as the key: - -```javascript -var withMaxIndex = qs.parse('a[100]=b'); -assert.deepEqual(withMaxIndex, { a: { '100': 'b' } }); -``` - -This limit can be overridden by passing an `arrayLimit` option: - -```javascript -var withArrayLimit = qs.parse('a[1]=b', { arrayLimit: 0 }); -assert.deepEqual(withArrayLimit, { a: { '1': 'b' } }); -``` - -To disable array parsing entirely, set `parseArrays` to `false`. - -```javascript -var noParsingArrays = qs.parse('a[]=b', { parseArrays: false }); -assert.deepEqual(noParsingArrays, { a: { '0': 'b' } }); -``` - -If you mix notations, **qs** will merge the two items into an object: - -```javascript -var mixedNotation = qs.parse('a[0]=b&a[b]=c'); -assert.deepEqual(mixedNotation, { a: { '0': 'b', b: 'c' } }); -``` - -You can also create arrays of objects: - -```javascript -var arraysOfObjects = qs.parse('a[][b]=c'); -assert.deepEqual(arraysOfObjects, { a: [{ b: 'c' }] }); -``` - -### Stringifying - -[](#preventEval) -```javascript -qs.stringify(object, [options]); -``` - -When stringifying, **qs** by default URI encodes output. Objects are stringified as you would expect: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b' }), 'a=b'); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: { b: 'c' } }), 'a%5Bb%5D=c'); -``` - -This encoding can be disabled by setting the `encode` option to `false`: - -```javascript -var unencoded = qs.stringify({ a: { b: 'c' } }, { encode: false }); -assert.equal(unencoded, 'a[b]=c'); -``` - -Encoding can be disabled for keys by setting the `encodeValuesOnly` option to `true`: -```javascript -var encodedValues = qs.stringify( - { a: 'b', c: ['d', 'e=f'], f: [['g'], ['h']] }, - { encodeValuesOnly: true } -); -assert.equal(encodedValues,'a=b&c[0]=d&c[1]=e%3Df&f[0][0]=g&f[1][0]=h'); -``` - -This encoding can also be replaced by a custom encoding method set as `encoder` option: - -```javascript -var encoded = qs.stringify({ a: { b: 'c' } }, { encoder: function (str) { - // Passed in values `a`, `b`, `c` - return // Return encoded string -}}) -``` - -_(Note: the `encoder` option does not apply if `encode` is `false`)_ - -Analogue to the `encoder` there is a `decoder` option for `parse` to override decoding of properties and values: - -```javascript -var decoded = qs.parse('x=z', { decoder: function (str) { - // Passed in values `x`, `z` - return // Return decoded string -}}) -``` - -Examples beyond this point will be shown as though the output is not URI encoded for clarity. Please note that the return values in these cases *will* be URI encoded during real usage. - -When arrays are stringified, by default they are given explicit indices: - -```javascript -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c', 'd'] }); -// 'a[0]=b&a[1]=c&a[2]=d' -``` - -You may override this by setting the `indices` option to `false`: - -```javascript -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c', 'd'] }, { indices: false }); -// 'a=b&a=c&a=d' -``` - -You may use the `arrayFormat` option to specify the format of the output array: - -```javascript -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c'] }, { arrayFormat: 'indices' }) -// 'a[0]=b&a[1]=c' -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c'] }, { arrayFormat: 'brackets' }) -// 'a[]=b&a[]=c' -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c'] }, { arrayFormat: 'repeat' }) -// 'a=b&a=c' -``` - -When objects are stringified, by default they use bracket notation: - -```javascript -qs.stringify({ a: { b: { c: 'd', e: 'f' } } }); -// 'a[b][c]=d&a[b][e]=f' -``` - -You may override this to use dot notation by setting the `allowDots` option to `true`: - -```javascript -qs.stringify({ a: { b: { c: 'd', e: 'f' } } }, { allowDots: true }); -// 'a.b.c=d&a.b.e=f' -``` - -Empty strings and null values will omit the value, but the equals sign (=) remains in place: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: '' }), 'a='); -``` - -Key with no values (such as an empty object or array) will return nothing: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: [] }), ''); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: {} }), ''); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: [{}] }), ''); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: { b: []} }), ''); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: { b: {}} }), ''); -``` - -Properties that are set to `undefined` will be omitted entirely: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: null, b: undefined }), 'a='); -``` - -The query string may optionally be prepended with a question mark: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b', c: 'd' }, { addQueryPrefix: true }), '?a=b&c=d'); -``` - -The delimiter may be overridden with stringify as well: - -```javascript -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b', c: 'd' }, { delimiter: ';' }), 'a=b;c=d'); -``` - -If you only want to override the serialization of `Date` objects, you can provide a `serializeDate` option: - -```javascript -var date = new Date(7); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: date }), 'a=1970-01-01T00:00:00.007Z'.replace(/:/g, '%3A')); -assert.equal( - qs.stringify({ a: date }, { serializeDate: function (d) { return d.getTime(); } }), - 'a=7' -); -``` - -You may use the `sort` option to affect the order of parameter keys: - -```javascript -function alphabeticalSort(a, b) { - return a.localeCompare(b); -} -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'c', z: 'y', b : 'f' }, { sort: alphabeticalSort }), 'a=c&b=f&z=y'); -``` - -Finally, you can use the `filter` option to restrict which keys will be included in the stringified output. -If you pass a function, it will be called for each key to obtain the replacement value. Otherwise, if you -pass an array, it will be used to select properties and array indices for stringification: - -```javascript -function filterFunc(prefix, value) { - if (prefix == 'b') { - // Return an `undefined` value to omit a property. - return; - } - if (prefix == 'e[f]') { - return value.getTime(); - } - if (prefix == 'e[g][0]') { - return value * 2; - } - return value; -} -qs.stringify({ a: 'b', c: 'd', e: { f: new Date(123), g: [2] } }, { filter: filterFunc }); -// 'a=b&c=d&e[f]=123&e[g][0]=4' -qs.stringify({ a: 'b', c: 'd', e: 'f' }, { filter: ['a', 'e'] }); -// 'a=b&e=f' -qs.stringify({ a: ['b', 'c', 'd'], e: 'f' }, { filter: ['a', 0, 2] }); -// 'a[0]=b&a[2]=d' -``` - -### Handling of `null` values - -By default, `null` values are treated like empty strings: - -```javascript -var withNull = qs.stringify({ a: null, b: '' }); -assert.equal(withNull, 'a=&b='); -``` - -Parsing does not distinguish between parameters with and without equal signs. Both are converted to empty strings. - -```javascript -var equalsInsensitive = qs.parse('a&b='); -assert.deepEqual(equalsInsensitive, { a: '', b: '' }); -``` - -To distinguish between `null` values and empty strings use the `strictNullHandling` flag. In the result string the `null` -values have no `=` sign: - -```javascript -var strictNull = qs.stringify({ a: null, b: '' }, { strictNullHandling: true }); -assert.equal(strictNull, 'a&b='); -``` - -To parse values without `=` back to `null` use the `strictNullHandling` flag: - -```javascript -var parsedStrictNull = qs.parse('a&b=', { strictNullHandling: true }); -assert.deepEqual(parsedStrictNull, { a: null, b: '' }); -``` - -To completely skip rendering keys with `null` values, use the `skipNulls` flag: - -```javascript -var nullsSkipped = qs.stringify({ a: 'b', c: null}, { skipNulls: true }); -assert.equal(nullsSkipped, 'a=b'); -``` - -### Dealing with special character sets - -By default the encoding and decoding of characters is done in `utf-8`. If you -wish to encode querystrings to a different character set (i.e. -[Shift JIS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_JIS)) you can use the -[`qs-iconv`](https://github.com/martinheidegger/qs-iconv) library: - -```javascript -var encoder = require('qs-iconv/encoder')('shift_jis'); -var shiftJISEncoded = qs.stringify({ a: 'こんにちは!' }, { encoder: encoder }); -assert.equal(shiftJISEncoded, 'a=%82%B1%82%F1%82%C9%82%BF%82%CD%81I'); -``` - -This also works for decoding of query strings: - -```javascript -var decoder = require('qs-iconv/decoder')('shift_jis'); -var obj = qs.parse('a=%82%B1%82%F1%82%C9%82%BF%82%CD%81I', { decoder: decoder }); -assert.deepEqual(obj, { a: 'こんにちは!' }); -``` - -### RFC 3986 and RFC 1738 space encoding - -RFC3986 used as default option and encodes ' ' to *%20* which is backward compatible. -In the same time, output can be stringified as per RFC1738 with ' ' equal to '+'. - -``` -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b c' }), 'a=b%20c'); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b c' }, { format : 'RFC3986' }), 'a=b%20c'); -assert.equal(qs.stringify({ a: 'b c' }, { format : 'RFC1738' }), 'a=b+c'); -``` - -[1]: https://npmjs.org/package/qs -[2]: http://versionbadg.es/ljharb/qs.svg -[3]: https://api.travis-ci.org/ljharb/qs.svg -[4]: https://travis-ci.org/ljharb/qs -[5]: https://david-dm.org/ljharb/qs.svg -[6]: https://david-dm.org/ljharb/qs -[7]: https://david-dm.org/ljharb/qs/dev-status.svg -[8]: https://david-dm.org/ljharb/qs?type=dev -[9]: https://ci.testling.com/ljharb/qs.png -[10]: https://ci.testling.com/ljharb/qs -[11]: https://nodei.co/npm/qs.png?downloads=true&stars=true -[license-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/l/qs.svg -[license-url]: LICENSE -[downloads-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/dm/qs.svg -[downloads-url]: http://npm-stat.com/charts.html?package=qs |
