How to get query arguments from RequestURI without losing character

Question

I want to get the query arguments from RequestURI in golang. The URL is like that: http://localhost:3000/add-ebay?authToken=AgAAAA**AQAAAA**aAAAAA**6d8JWQ**nY+sHZ2PrBmdj6wVnY+sEZ2...

And my code is followings:

func CreateEbayProfile(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx) {

    log.Println( ctx.QueryArgs().Peek("authToken"))
               ....
}

The result is that:

AgAAAA**AQAAAA**aAAAAA**6d8JWQ**nY sHZ2PrBmdj6wVnY sEZ2...

But I want to result like that:

AgAAAA**AQAAAA**aAAAAA**6d8JWQ**nY+sHZ2PrBmdj6wVnY+sEZ2...

How can I get the correct result? And why this is happening?

Spaces in a URL query are escaped as `+`. As far as a query string goes, the values are equivalent. — JimB, May 03 '17 at 15:08
Technically you are getting the correct result; if the parameter is supposed to include literal `+` characters, then the input is incorrect, and should be URL-encoded (passing `%2B` in place of `+`). — Adrian, May 03 '17 at 19:55

You can simply use strings.Replace to replace a character with another one.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "strings"
)

func main() {
    s := "AgAAAA**AQAAAA**aAAAAA**6d8JWQ**nY sHZ2PrBmdj6wVnY sEZ2...";
    conv := strings.Replace(s, " ", "+", -1)

    fmt.Println(conv) //AgAAAA**AQAAAA**aAAAAA**6d8JWQ**nY+sHZ2PrBmdj6wVnY+sEZ2...

}

Here you can find a Playground reproducing this code.

I think your answer is not good solution. I have to encode url. This is best solution, I think. Anyway I appreciate your help.AndreaM – Alakey May 04 '17 at 03:20
