Convert JavaScript object into URI-encoded string

Question

I got a JavaScript object which I would like to get x-www-form-urlencoded.

Something like $(\'#myform\').serialize() but for objects.

Answer 1

function jsonToURI(jsonObj) {
    var output = '';
    var keys = Object.keys(jsonObj);
    keys.forEach(function(key) {
        output = output + key + '=' + jsonObj[key] + '&';
    })
    return output.slice(0, -1);
}

function uriToJSON(urijson) {
    var output = {};
    urijson = decodeURIComponent(urijson);
    urijson = urijson.split('&');
    urijson.forEach(function(param) {
        var param = param.split('=');
        output[param[0]] = param[1];
    })
    return output
}
