Get individual query parameters from Uri [duplicate]

Answer 1

Have a look at HttpUtility.ParseQueryString() It'll give you a NameValueCollection instead of a dictionary, but should still do what you need.

The other option is to use string.Split().

    string url = @"http://example.com/file?a=1&b=2&c=string%20param";
    string[] parts = url.Split(new char[] {'?','&'});
    ///parts[0] now contains http://example.com/file
    ///parts[1] = "a=1"
    ///parts[2] = "b=2"
    ///parts[3] = "c=string%20param"

Answer 2

For isolated projects, where dependencies must be kept to a minimum, I found myself using this implementation:

var arguments = uri.Query
  .Substring(1) // Remove '?'
  .Split('&')
  .Select(q => q.Split('='))
  .ToDictionary(q => q.FirstOrDefault(), q => q.Skip(1).FirstOrDefault());

Do note, however, that I do not handle encoded strings of any kind, as I was using this in a controlled setting, where encoding issues would be a coding error on the server side that should be fixed.

Answer 3

You could reference System.Web in your console application and then look for the Utility functions that split the URL parameters.
