/**
 * Parses and builds Object of URL query string.
 * @param {string} query The URL query string.
 * @return {!Object}
 */
function parseQueryString(query) {
  if (!query) {
    return {};
  }
  return (/^[?#]/.test(query) ? query.slice(1) : query)
      .split('&')
      .reduce((params, param) => {
        const item = param.split('=');
        const key = decodeURIComponent(item[0] || '');
        const value = decodeURIComponent(item[1] || '');
        if (key) {
          params[key] = value;
        }
        return params;
      }, {});
}

console.log(parseQueryString('?v=MFa9pvnVe0w&ku=user&from=89&aw=1'))
