Signature

StringMap parse_query(String q)

Parameters

q : string containing URL parameters
return value : a StringMap containing the parameters

Decodes a query-string fragment such as a=b&c=d into a StringMap.

Parsing rules:

  • pairs are separated on &

  • each pair is split on the first raw = only

  • both key and value are URL-decoded

  • keyless flags such as preview are present with an empty string value

  • empty pairs, including a trailing &, are ignored

  • repeated keys use the last value seen

Examples:

This is useful when you need to work with URL parameter data outside the normal request parsing flow.

Example

StringMap q = parse_query("name=Ada&role=admin");
print(q["name"], "\n");
Output
Ada
