URL Encoding Guide

What is URL Encoding?

URL encoding is a method used to safely transmit special characters, spaces, and Unicode characters in URLs. It converts special characters to '%' symbol followed by hexadecimal codes.

Processing Mode Descriptions

  • • Standard URL Encoding: Uses encodeURIComponent() or encodeURI()
  • • Query String (qs): Convert objects to query strings or parse them
  • • Form Data: Handle form data in key=value format

When to Use?

  • • When including special characters or non-ASCII characters in URL query parameters
  • • When transmitting form data
  • • When sending data with special characters in API requests
  • • When ensuring URL safety in web development

Common Encoding Characters

Space → %20
! → %21
@ → %40
# → %23
$ → %24
% → %25
& → %26
+ → %2B

qs Library Example

import qs from 'qs';

const encoded = qs.stringify({ a: '1 2', b: ['x', 'y'] }, { encode: true });
// → a=1%202&b[0]=x&b[1]=y

const decoded = qs.parse(encoded);
// → { a: '1 2', b: ['x', 'y'] }

Character Encoding

Character encoding refers to converting strings to specific encoding formats. In URL encoding, character encoding can convert strings to various encoding formats like UTF-8, EUC-KR, ISO-8859-1, etc.
