Parse query parameters and/or build a string

url_query_parse() parses a query string into a named list; url_query_build() builds a query string from a named list.

Usage

url_query_parse(query)

url_query_build(query, .multi = c("error", "comma", "pipe", "explode"))

Arguments

query

A string, when parsing; a named list when building.

.multi

Controls what happens when a value is a vector:

• "error", the default, throws an error.

• "comma", separates values with a ,, e.g. ?x=1,2.

• "pipe", separates values with a |, e.g. ?x=1|2.

• "explode", turns each element into its own parameter, e.g. ?x=1&x=2

If none of these options work for your needs, you can instead supply a function that takes a character vector of argument values and returns a a single string.

Examples

str(url_query_parse("a=1&b=2"))
#> List of 2
#>  $ a: chr "1"
#>  $ b: chr "2"

url_query_build(list(x = 1, y = "z"))
#> [1] "x=1&y=z"
url_query_build(list(x = 1, y = 1:2), .multi = "explode")
#> [1] "x=1&y=1&y=2"
