[DISC] Percent decoding about serde_urlencoded

[erwanvivien]

Hello @ckcr4lyf,

I'm still, to this day, using the said "hack"...
I do not understand @nox answer, serde_urlencode doesn't use https://github.com/servo/rust-url/ ?

Why is there no function to decode only the keys, not the values ?

id=6%206&abc=123&def=2%252 yieding {"id": "6%206", "def": "2%252", "abc": "123"} as mentionned before.

Thanks

You probably want to file an issue at https://github.com/servo/rust-url/ and use the percent_encoding crate directly.

@erwanvivien wondering if you were able to come across a solution? Thanks to your hack I am able to get my current code working (i.e no invalid UTF8 error), but receiving raw bytes in URL params is proving to be a problem to otherwise decode currently...

Current hack (inspired by yours: ckcr4lyf/kiryuu@2536307#diff-42cb6807ad74b3e201c5a7ca98b911c5fa08380e942be6e4ac5807f8377f87fcR29)

I am not too sure myself, I wasn't really able to read the source that well... I will try and figure out if the % decoding is an issue at this library's usage of rust-url or it comes due to a higher level issue of auto decoding in rust-url

@erwanvivien seems it is a design choice by the parent library to not support invalid UTF-8, as is mentioned in this spec which they follow - https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#urlencoded-parsing

Guess no choice except the hack, thanks for sharing it!
