Node.js urlObject.query API
The urlObject.query is the query string returned without the ASCII question mark (?) or an object returned by the query string module named as parse() method. The url.parse() method is used to check whether the query is a string or an object. Basically, the argument (parseQueryString) that is passed to url.parse() method to tell the nature of the query.
Syntax
urlObject.query
Note: If this method returns as a string then the decoding of the query string is not performed and if it returns an object then both key and value pairs are decoded.
'query=string' or {'query': 'object'}
'http://localhost:8000/gfg.html?name:GFG'
In the above URL, the name is the query and GFG is the string.
