0 0 1 minute read

The _.toQuery() method takes an object and converts it into an equivalent URL query string.

Syntax:

_.toQuery( Object);

Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:

Object: This method takes an Object to convert.

Return Value: This method returns the equivalent URL query String.

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the underscore.js contrib library to be installed.

Example 1:

// Defining underscore contrib variable 
var _ = require('underscore-contrib');  
  
var s  = _.toQuery({ name: 'gfg', color: 'green' }); 
  
console.log("The generated URL Query String is : ",s);

Output:

The generated URL Query String is :  name=gfg&color=green
