Usage

console.log(location.search);
// ?foo=bar

var parsed = queryString.parse(location.search);
console.log(parsed);
// {foo: 'bar'}

parsed.foo = 'unicorn';
parsed.ilike = 'pizza';
location.search = queryString.stringify(parsed);

API

queryString.parse(string)

Parse a query string into an object.

queryString.stringify(object)

Stringify an object into a query string.

Nesting

This module intentionally doesn't support nesting as it's not specced and varies between implementations, which causes a lot of edge cases.

You're much better off just converting the object to a JSON string:

queryString.stringify({
  foo: 'bar',
  nested: JSON.stringify({
    unicorn: 'cake'
  })
});
// foo=bar&nested=%7B%22unicorn%22%3A%22cake%22%7D
