Ruby: How to turn a hash into HTTP parameters?

Question

That is pretty easy with a plain hash like

{:a => \"a\", :b => \"b\"} 

which would translate into

\"a=a&b=b\"
<         


        

Answer 1

{:a=>"a", :b=>"b", :c=>"c"}.map{ |x,v| "#{x}=#{v}" }.reduce{|x,v| "#{x}&#{v}" }

"a=a&b=b&c=c"

Here's another way. For simple queries.
