urlencode

encodeURIComponent with charset, e.g.: gbk

Install

$ npm install urlencode

Usage

var urlencode = require('urlencode');

console.log(urlencode('苏千')); // default is utf8
console.log(urlencode('苏千', 'gbk')); // '%CB%D5%C7%A7'

// decode gbk
urlencode.decode('%CB%D5%C7%A7', 'gbk'); // '苏千'

// parse gbk querystring
urlencode.parse('nick=%CB%D5%C7%A7', {charset: 'gbk'}); // {nick: '苏千'}

// stringify obj with gbk encoding
var str = 'x[y][0][v][w]=' + urlencode('雾空', 'gbk'); // x[y][0][v][w]=%CE%ED%BF%D5
var obj =  {'x' : {'y' : [{'v' : {'w' : '雾空'}}]}};
urlencode.stringify(obj, {charset: 'gbk'}).should.equal(str);

Benchmark

urlencode(str, encoding)

$ node benchmark/urlencode.js

node version: v0.10.26
urlencode(str) x 11,980 ops/sec ±1.13% (100 runs sampled)
urlencode(str, "gbk") x 8,575 ops/sec ±1.58% (94 runs sampled)
encodeURIComponent(str) x 11,677 ops/sec ±2.32% (93 runs sampled)
Fastest is urlencode(str)
