.SH NAME
.B magi_urlenc
\- implementation of url encoding
.SH SYNOPSYS
.B #include <magi.h>
.P
int
.BR magi_urlenc_size "(const char *" plain );
.P
void
.BR magi_urlenc "(const char *" plain ", char *" code );
.SH DESCRIPTION
Can be helpful in forming urls in response. Use
.B magi_urlenc_size
to find what the size of code will be and then call
.B magi_urlenc
for encoding itself.
.P
URL encoding is described in
.IR "RFC 3986" .
Briefly it is replacement of every space into plus sign and every not
alpha-numerical or not one of "~-._" character into percent sign
followed by hexademical representation of given character byte.
.P
.B code
passed to
.B magi_urlenc
should be at least size of
.BR magi_urlenc_size ( plain ).
.SH RETURN VALUES
.BR magi_urlenc_size :
size of url encoding of
.BR plain .
.SH EXAMPLES
The following forms URL to search in DuckDuckGo for provided
.RB "char *" query
in
.RB "char *" url .
.P
.RS
.nf
const char *prefix = "http://duckduckgo.com/?q=";
const int prelen = strlen(prefix);
const int urlencsize = magi_urlenc_size(query);
url = malloc(prelen + urlencsize + 1);
strcpy(url, prefix);
magi_urlenc(query, url + prelen);
url[prelen + urlencsize] = 0;
