How do I uri-decode in Kotlin JS/WASM?

[ian.shaun.thomas]

external fun decodeURI(uri:String): String

I don't see it defined in KJS so that would be how you add it

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

ah, so it is enough to declare any JavaScript function that is missing as external?

👍

you might have a look at the wrappers.
https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-wrappers
most JS apis are already avalable in the kotlin-js wrapper

[Chrimaeon]

i.e. https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-wrappers/blob/7f9f748299541f94217264a29cf71fa97d6226e4/kotlin-js/src/jsMain/kotlin/js/uri/decodeURI.kt#L6

Hee, hee - thanks a lot, although I know nothing about JavaScript.

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

But something strange is happening with external decodeURI. This code:

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

val decoded1 = decodeURI(cookies)
        val decoded2 = decodeURI(decoded1)
        debugLog("Decoded cookies 1: '$decoded1'")
        debugLog("Decoded cookies 2: '$decoded2'")

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

(yes - double encoded data) shows in log:

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

Decoded cookies 1: 'SESSION_ID=accessToken%3D%23sya29.a0AcM612zbV5lhv_HPT_TgYFapnJqhtK_oTcyMa7FsL-SzrzANQmneWAN1l7MqTkJraTd8IyJDYA985mGtRUYRI48glqdairfJO2UDJKXFzbJ4Hx-a-FXxwmtvuhG9Wio1IyDnO0caJIGtk8pwAo-VJUQCuFz-9shUwMnSa_ZKaCgYKAY4SARMSFQHGX2MiaFZtPNPgp1-VexDLcfoA9w0175%26userId%3D%23i1'

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

so - notthing is happening!'

[Chrimaeon]

i guess you want to decodeURIComponent as you do not have an URI but just a part of it.

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

aaaah

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

So maybe a bonus question - do you know what ktor comonent adds type annotations to fields, look at this decoded cookie:

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

'SESSION_ID=accessToken=#sya29.a0AcM612xBakbD6p0jtxGGVo4J6X-N2tGAFYtRMHsmcLGb3dodi9ZRXKXfgWTLnpOOSJNldIxKd6ozezL4tQHS94jE07CGqO2s0pW-zaWWmitR7If7vpAlD7SjLKF5VqN-QzEGriTtC-SHivhTiaVrEHXaXdWfRQZwc4S6ybIraCgYKAToSARMSFQHGX2Mi4bPkYdh7V06eGAZYlpoYPQ0175&userId=#i1'

[Grdykopląs Namorzyn]

it has #s for string and #i for int, I didn't put them there...
