Flatten a javascript object to pass as querystring

Question

I have a javascript object that I need to flatten into a string so that I can pass as querystring, how would I do that? i.e:

{ cost: 12345, insertBy: \'testUse

Answer 1

My ES6 version (pure Javascript, no jQuery):

function toQueryString(paramsObject) {
  return Object
    .keys(paramsObject)
    .map(key => `${encodeURIComponent(key)}=${encodeURIComponent(paramsObject[key])}`)
    .join('&')
  ;
}
