Problem: I wanted to easily grab all url params and convert it to a json object. Many of my projects requires me to use querystrings, but is always a pain trying to parse it. Solution: Using location.search and regex, I’m able to achieve this easily. I wrapped it in a function so you can easily drop it into your projects. function UrlParamsToJson (){ var queryString = location . search . substring ( 1 ); var obj = {}; if ( queryString ) { obj = JSON . parse ( '{"' + decodeURI ( queryString ) . replace ( /"/g , ' \\ "' ) . replace ( /&/g , '","' ) . replace ( /=/g , '":"' ) + '"}' ); } return obj; } Hope this helps somebody.
