Javascript object to querystring method From http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5505085/flatten-a-javascript-object-to-pass-as-querystring #javascript

!ReadMe.md

Example usage

Use like:

console.log(toQueryString({
    prop1: 'x',
    prop2: {
        y: 1,
        z: 2
    }
}, false));

Which outputs:

prop1=x&prop2[y]=1&prop2[z]=2

function toQueryString(obj, urlEncode) {
    //
    // Helper function that flattens an object, retaining key structer as a path array:
    //
    // Input: { prop1: 'x', prop2: { y: 1, z: 2 } }
    // Example output: [
    //     { path: [ 'prop1' ],      val: 'x' },
    //     { path: [ 'prop2', 'y' ], val: '1' },
    //     { path: [ 'prop2', 'z' ], val: '2' }
    // ]
    //
    function flattenObj(x, path) {
        var result = [];

        path = path || [];
        Object.keys(x).forEach(function (key) {
            if (!x.hasOwnProperty(key)) return;

            var newPath = path.slice();
            newPath.push(key);

            var vals = [];
            if (typeof x[key] == 'object') {
                vals = flattenObj(x[key], newPath);
            } else {
                vals.push({ path: newPath, val: x[key] });
            }
            vals.forEach(function (obj) {
                return result.push(obj);
            });
        });

        return result;
    } // flattenObj

    // start with  flattening `obj`
    var parts = flattenObj(obj); // [ { path: [ ...parts ], val: ... }, ... ]

    // convert to array notation:
    parts = parts.map(function (varInfo) {
        if (varInfo.path.length == 1) varInfo.path = varInfo.path[0];else {
            var first = varInfo.path[0];
            var rest = varInfo.path.slice(1);
            varInfo.path = first + '[' + rest.join('][') + ']';
        }
        return varInfo;
    }); // parts.map

    // join the parts to a query-string url-component
    var queryString = parts.map(function (varInfo) {
        return varInfo.path + '=' + varInfo.val;
    }).join('&');
    if (urlEncode) return encodeURIComponent(queryString);else return queryString;
}

function toParam(obj) {
  var str = "";
  var seperator = "";
  for (var key in obj) {
    str += seperator;
    str += enncodeURIComponent(key) + "=" + encodeURIComponent(obj[key]);
    seperator = "&";
  }
  return str;
}

toParam({ cost: 12345, insertBy: 'testUser' })
