php-qs

A JS library for building and parsing query strings similar to PHP's http_build_query and parse_str functions.

Installation

npm add php-qs

Usage

import { parse, stringify } from 'php-qs'

console.log(stringify({ foo: 'bar', baz: ['qux', 'quux'], corge: null }))
// => foo=bar&baz%5B0%5D=qux&baz%5B1%5D=quux&corge=

console.log(parse('foo=bar&baz%5B0%5D=qux&baz%5B1%5D=quux&corge='))
// => { foo: 'bar', baz: ['qux', 'quux'], corge: null }

Notes

• Not battle-tested. Use at your own risk.
  • Although, the tests are taken from PHP's source code and are passing.
• Not 100% compatible with PHP functions. For example,
  • parse might throw errors if the input is not a valid query string.
  • stringify uses RFC 3986, while PHP uses RFC 1738 by default.
  • some differences are there because of what Array means in JS vs PHP.
