Below programs illustrates the use of urlSearchParams.toString() method in Node.js:
Example 1: Filename app.js
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// URLSearchParams.toString() method
// Importing the module 'url'
const http = require('url');
// Creating and initializing
// URLSearchParams object
const params = new URLSearchParams();
// Appending value in the object
params.append('A', 'Book');
params.append('B', 'Pen');
params.append('A', 'Pencil');
// Getting string representation
// by using toString() api
const value = params.toString();
// Display the result
console.log("String representation"
+ " of object : " + value);
Run app.js file using the following command:
node app.js
Output:
String representation of object : A=Book&B=Pen&A=Pencil
Example 2:
Filename app.js
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// URLSearchParams.toString() method
// Importing the module 'url'
const http = require('url');
// Creating and initializing
// URLSearchParams object
const params = new URLSearchParams();
// Appending value in the object
params.append('geeks', 'code');
params.append('for', 'eat');
params.append('geeks', 'sleep');
// Getting string representation
// by using toString() api
const value = params.toString();
// Display the result
console.log("String representation"
+ " of object : " + value);
Run app.js file using the following command:
node app.js
Output:
String representation of object : geeks=code&for=eat&geeks=sleep
