[cpp-netlib-devel] Query gets lost

[Richy <kle...@gm...>]

Dear List,

this is probably a rather simple question, however I have failed to
find a solution.

I'm trying to use cpp-netlib with couchdb in a project.
CouchDB uses Views to get data and it is possible to filter result by
passing a key. In my case that key would be in the form of:
["key1", "key2"]

I figured out that one has to manually escape the quotation-signs, but
I'm not aware of am escape sequence for the [ sign. However, it
doesn't get transmitted and the rest is skipped as well.
sample-Code.

    std::string requestURI = dbUrl;
    requestURI.append("/_design/user/_view/getUserHistory?key=[%22");
    requestURI.append(missionID);
    requestURI.append("%22,%22");
    requestURI.append(userID);
    requestURI.append("%22]");

    http::client client(http::client::follow_redirects);
    http::client::request request(requestURI);
    http::client::response response = client.get(request);

I hope the answer is not too obvious but still out there.
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks a lot

Richard

You will need to use %5B for '[' and %5D for ']'.

You can get a table from http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/ref_urlencode.asp

That said, it would be nice if someone can write a urlencode function
-- maybe as a Karma generator? :D Any takers?

I would love to see one in boost/network/protocol/http/utils/ -- so if
you have tests and an implementation on your fork, I would love to get
this in 0.7. :)

There's a url_decode and url_encode function already in
http://github.com/mikhailberis/cpp-netlib/blob/master/boost/network/protocol/http/impl/message.ipp.
Though I agree a Karma version would look better :)

No worries, I don't like giving ETA's too since I'm doing this on my
free time as well. ;)

Have a great weekend!
