A URL encoder/decoder library for lua with native extension.
This library aims to use within application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
local urlencode = require 'urlencode' urlencode.encode_url("hello こんにちは") -- => hello+%E3%81%93%E3%82%93%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A1%E3%81%AF urlencode.decode_url("hello+%E3%81%93%E3%82%93%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A1%E3%81%AF") -- => hello こんにちはThis function encodes the string as URL encoding. The string MUST be utf8.
This function decodes the string as URL encoding. The string MUST be utf8.
This library only works certainly with utf8 string.
Benchmark code is here:
pure lua: encode url system: 15.360 user: 0.100 total: 15.460 real: 16.125 encodeurl: encode url system: 0.240 user: 0.040 total: 0.280 real: 0.312 pure lua: decode url system: 10.160 user: 0.060 total: 10.220 real: 10.625 encodeurl: decode url system: 0.260 user: 0.040 total: 0.300 real: 0.375 - urlencode's encoding is about 64 times faster than pure lua implementation
- urlencode's decoding is about 39 times faster than pure lua implementation
This library takes lots of code from p5-url-encode-xs.
