This is a polyfill for the URLSearchParams API.
It is possible to simply include build/url-search-params.js or grab it via npm.
npm install url-search-params
The function is exported directly.
var URLSearchParams = require('url-search-params');

This property is already implemented in Firefox and polyfilled here only for browsers that exposes getters and setters
through the HTMLAnchorElement.prototype
.
In order to know if such property is supported, you must do the check as such:
if ('searchParams' in HTMLAnchorElement.prototype) {
// polyfill for <a> links supported
}
If you do this check instead:
if (HTMLAnchorElement.prototype.searchParams) {
// throws a TypeError
}
this polyfill will reflect natiive behavior, throwing a type error due access to a property in a non instance of HTMLAnchorElement
.
Nothing new to learn here, just a reminder.
