NAME

URI::Encode - a Raku module for encoding / decoding URIs

SYNOPSIS

use URI::Encode;

# for encoding whole URIs, ignores reserved chars: :/?#[]@!$&'()*+,;=
my $encoded_uri = uri_encode('http://www.example.com/?name=john doe&age=54');

# encode every reserved char
my $encoded_uri_component = uri_encode_component('some text/to encode+ safely');

# remove percent encoding
my $decoded_uri = uri_decode('http://www.example.com/?name=john%20doe&age=54');

# provided for symmetry, is the same as uri_decode()
my $decoded_component = uri_decode_component('some%20text%2Fto%20%2B%20safely');

DESCRIPTION

URI::Encode is a module that exports four subroutines:

• uri_encode - encode a whole URI

• uri_encode_component - encode every reserved char

• uri_decode - decode a whole URI

• uri_decode_component - decode every reserved char

SEE ALSo

URI is another implementation that covers this area, including encoding and decoding of URIs.
