Method Detail

parseUrlQueryString

public static java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String[]> parseUrlQueryString(java.lang.String url)

Parses an URL, extracts the query string and returns a map with the parameter values. The map has the same structure as the one returned by javax.servlet.ServletRequest.getParameterMap(). For each parameter name, the map contains a string array with the parameter values.

Parameters:

url - an URL or an URL query string.

Returns:

a map containing parameter names as keys and parameter values as map values.

parseUrlQueryStringAsJson

public static java.lang.String parseUrlQueryStringAsJson(java.lang.String url)

Parses an URL, extracts the query string and returns the parameters as JSON format.

Parameters:

url - an URL or an URL query string.

Returns:

String containing the parameters (name and values) as JSON format

parseUrlQueryStringAsJson

public static java.lang.String parseUrlQueryStringAsJson(java.lang.String url,
                                                         java.util.function.Function<java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String[]>,java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>> paramMapUpdator)

Parses an URL, extracts the query string and returns the parameters as JSON format.

Example:

  String url = "http://localhost:8080/jcms/jcms/j_6/en/home?param1=value1&param2=value21&param2=value22";
 String json = URLUtils.parseUrlQueryStringAsJson(url);
 
 Result: {"param1":["value1"],"param2":["value21","value22"]}
 

It's possible to use a Function implementation to manipulate the Map of parameters extracted from URL, before to be convert in JSON.

Example:

  String url = "http://localhost:8080/jcms/jcms/j_6/en/home?param1=value1&param2=value21&param2=value22";
  json = URLUtils.parseUrlQueryStringAsJson(url, (map) -> Util.getHashMap("params", map));
 
 Result: {"params":{"param1":["value1"],"param2":["value21","value22"]}}
 

Parameters:

url - an URL or an URL query string.

paramMapUpdator - implementation of Function to manipulate the Map of parameters extracted from URL

Returns:

String containing the parameters (name and values) as JSON format

getQueryString

public static java.lang.String getQueryString(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String[]> parametersMap,
                                              java.lang.String... excludedParams)

Returns a query String from a map of parameters.

Parameters:

parametersMap - Map of parameters

excludedParams - Parameter to exclude in the final query string

Returns:

String representing a query string

buildUrl

public static java.lang.String buildUrl(java.lang.String url,
                                        java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String[]> parametersMap)

Build an URL by adding the given parameters.

If a parameter to be added is already present in the given URL, the URL's parameter will be replaced by the new parameter.

If a parameter has a null value, this parameter will be removed from the URL.

Example

 String url = "http://www.jalios.com/home.jsp?param1=value1&param1=value2&param2=value2#hash1";
 Map<String, String[]> map = new HashMap<String, String[]>();
 map.put("param1", null);
 map.put("param2", new String[] { "value21", "value22" });
 map.put("param3", new String[] { "value31", "value32" });
 String url = URLUtils.buildUrl(url, map);
 
 The "url" value will be:
 
 http://www.jalios.com/home.jsp?param2=value21&param2=value22&param3=value31&param3=value32#hash1
 

Parameters:

url - the full URL with parameters and hash

parametersMap - Map of the params to add/remove

Returns:

the new url
