I have a big URL hash that is given in string form and need to extract each part of it:
type=recovery&access_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9eyJhdWQiOiJhdXRoZW50aWNhdGV&expires_in=3600&refresh_token=sYlurmTtfrAhyHl39Oqwww&token_type=bearer&type=recovery
I have tried substr() but it isn't reliable because each item may have a differing amount of characters each time.
What's the best way to extract type, access_token, expires_in, refresh_token, token_type reliably?
You could use URL:
// Adding a dummy domain so the string is a valid url
let x = new URL('http://dummydomain.tpl/dummyfile.ext?' +
'type=recovery&access_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9eyJhdWQiOiJhdXRoZW50aWNhdGV&expires_in=3600&refresh_token=sYlurmTtfrAhyHl39Oqwww&token_type=bearer&type=recovery');
x.searchParams.get("refresh_token")
Please use URLSearchParams
var urlSearchParams = new URLSearchParams("type=recovery&access_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9eyJhdWQiOiJhdXRoZW50aWNhdGV&expires_in=3600&refresh_token=sYlurmTtfrAhyHl39Oqwww&token_type=bearer&type=recovery")
const params = Object.fromEntries(urlSearchParams.entries());
console.log(params)
