Parse and stringify URL query strings
$ npm install query-string
This module targets Node.js 6 or later and the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. If you want support for older browsers, or, if your project is using create-react-app v1, use version 5: npm install query-string@5
.
const queryString = require('query-string');
console.log(location.search);
//=> '?foo=bar'
const parsed = queryString.parse(location.search);
console.log(parsed);
//=> {foo: 'bar'}
console.log(location.hash);
//=> '#token=bada55cafe'
const parsedHash = queryString.parse(location.hash);
console.log(parsedHash);
//=> {token: 'bada55cafe'}
parsed.foo = 'unicorn';
parsed.ilike = 'pizza';
const stringified = queryString.stringify(parsed);
//=> 'foo=unicorn&ilike=pizza'
location.search = stringified;
// note that `location.search` automatically prepends a question mark
console.log(location.search);
//=> '?foo=unicorn&ilike=pizza'
Parse a query string into an object. Leading ?
or #
are ignored, so you can pass location.search
or location.hash
directly.
The returned object is created with Object.create(null)
and thus does not have a prototype
.
Type: object
Type: boolean
Default: true
Decode the keys and values. URL components are decoded with decode-uri-component
.
Type: string
Default: 'none'
'bracket'
: Parse arrays with bracket representation:
queryString.parse('foo[]=1&foo[]=2&foo[]=3', {arrayFormat: 'bracket'});
//=> {foo: ['1', '2', '3']}
'index'
: Parse arrays with index representation:
queryString.parse('foo[0]=1&foo[1]=2&foo[3]=3', {arrayFormat: 'index'});
//=> {foo: ['1', '2', '3']}
'comma'
: Parse arrays with elements separated by comma:
queryString.parse('foo=1,2,3', {arrayFormat: 'comma'});
//=> {foo: ['1', '2', '3']}
'none'
: Parse arrays with elements using duplicate keys:
queryString.parse('foo=1&foo=2&foo=3');
//=> {foo: ['1', '2', '3']}
Type: Function | boolean
Default: true
Supports both Function
as a custom sorting function or false
to disable sorting.
Type: boolean
Default: false
queryString.parse('foo=1', {parseNumbers: true});
//=> {foo: 1}
Parse the value as a number type instead of string type if it's a number.
Type: boolean
Default: false
queryString.parse('foo=true', {parseBooleans: true});
//=> {foo: true}
Parse the value as a boolean type instead of string type if it's a boolean.
Stringify an object into a query string and sorting the keys.
Type: object
Type: boolean
Default: true
Strictly encode URI components with strict-uri-encode. It uses encodeURIComponent if set to false. You probably don't care about this option.
Type: boolean
Default: true
URL encode the keys and values.
Type: string
Default: 'none'
'bracket'
: Serialize arrays using bracket representation:
queryString.stringify({foo: [1, 2, 3]}, {arrayFormat: 'bracket'});
//=> 'foo[]=1&foo[]=2&foo[]=3'
'index'
: Serialize arrays using index representation:
queryString.stringify({foo: [1, 2, 3]}, {arrayFormat: 'index'});
//=> 'foo[0]=1&foo[1]=2&foo[2]=3'
'comma'
: Serialize arrays by separating elements with comma:
queryString.stringify({foo: [1, 2, 3]}, {arrayFormat: 'comma'});
//=> 'foo=1,2,3'
'none'
: Serialize arrays by using duplicate keys:
queryString.stringify({foo: [1, 2, 3]});
//=> 'foo=1&foo=2&foo=3'
Type: Function | boolean
Supports both Function
as a custom sorting function or false
to disable sorting.
const order = ['c', 'a', 'b'];
queryString.stringify({a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}, {
sort: (a, b) => order.indexOf(a) - order.indexOf(b)
});
//=> 'c=3&a=1&b=2'
queryString.stringify({b: 1, c: 2, a: 3}, {sort: false});
//=> 'b=1&c=2&a=3'
If omitted, keys are sorted using Array#sort()
, which means, converting them to strings and comparing strings in Unicode code point order.
Extract a query string from a URL that can be passed into .parse()
.
Extract the URL and the query string as an object.
The options
are the same as for .parse()
.
Returns an object with a url
and query
property.
queryString.parseUrl('https://foo.bar?foo=bar');
//=> {url: 'https://foo.bar', query: {foo: 'bar'}}
This module intentionally doesn't support nesting as it's not spec'd and varies between implementations, which causes a lot of edge cases.
You're much better off just converting the object to a JSON string:
queryString.stringify({
foo: 'bar',
nested: JSON.stringify({
unicorn: 'cake'
})
});
//=> 'foo=bar&nested=%7B%22unicorn%22%3A%22cake%22%7D'
However, there is support for multiple instances of the same key:
queryString.parse('likes=cake&name=bob&likes=icecream');
//=> {likes: ['cake', 'icecream'], name: 'bob'}
queryString.stringify({color: ['taupe', 'chartreuse'], id: '515'});
//=> 'color=taupe&color=chartreuse&id=515'
Sometimes you want to unset a key, or maybe just make it present without assigning a value to it. Here is how falsy values are stringified:
queryString.stringify({foo: false});
//=> 'foo=false'
queryString.stringify({foo: null});
//=> 'foo'
queryString.stringify({foo: undefined});
//=> ''
