UrlQuerySanitizer

Kotlin |Java

public class UrlQuerySanitizer
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.net.UrlQuerySanitizer

Sanitizes the Query portion of a URL. Simple example:

 UrlQuerySanitizer sanitizer = new UrlQuerySanitizer();
 sanitizer.setAllowUnregisteredParamaters(true);
 sanitizer.parseUrl("http://example.com/?name=Joe+User");
 String name = sanitizer.getValue("name"));
 // name now contains "Joe_User"

 UrlQuerySanitizer sanitizer = new UrlQuerySanitizer();
 sanitizer.registerParamater("name", UrlQuerySanitizer.createSpaceLegal());
 sanitizer.parseUrl("http://example.com/?name=Joe+User");
 String name = sanitizer.getValue("name"));
 // name now contains "Joe User". (The string is first decoded, which
 // converts the '+' to a ' '. Then the string is sanitized, which
 // converts the ' ' to an '_'. (The ' ' is converted because the default
 unregistered parameter sanitizer does not allow any special characters,
 and ' ' is a special character.)

There are several ways to create ValueSanitizers. In order of increasing sophistication:

Call one of the UrlQuerySanitizer.createXXX() methods.
Construct your own instance of UrlQuerySanitizer.IllegalCharacterValueSanitizer.
Subclass UrlQuerySanitizer.ValueSanitizer to define your own value sanitizer.

Public constructors

UrlQuerySanitizer

Added in API level 1

public UrlQuerySanitizer ()

Constructs a UrlQuerySanitizer.

Defaults:

unregistered parameters are not allowed.
the last instance of a repeated parameter is preferred.
The default value sanitizer is an AllIllegal value sanitizer.

UrlQuerySanitizer

Added in API level 1

public UrlQuerySanitizer (String url)

Constructs a UrlQuerySanitizer and parses a URL. This constructor is provided for convenience when the default parsing behavior is acceptable.

Because the URL is parsed before the constructor returns, there isn't a chance to configure the sanitizer to change the parsing behavior.

UrlQuerySanitizer sanitizer = new UrlQuerySanitizer(myUrl); String name = sanitizer.getValue("name");

Defaults:

unregistered parameters are allowed.
the last instance of a repeated parameter is preferred.
The default value sanitizer is an AllIllegal value sanitizer.

Parameters
`url`	`String`

Added in API level 1

public void parseQuery (String query)

Parse a query. A query string is any number of parameter-value clauses separated by any non-zero number of ampersands. A parameter-value clause is a parameter followed by an equal sign, followed by a value. If the equal sign is missing, the value is assumed to be the empty string.

Parameters
`query`	`String`: the query to parse.

parseUrl

Added in API level 1

registerParameter

Added in API level 1

public void registerParameter (String parameter,

Registering a non-null value sanitizer for a particular parameter makes that parameter a registered parameter.

Parameters
`parameter`	`String`: an unencoded parameter name
`valueSanitizer`	`UrlQuerySanitizer.ValueSanitizer`: the value sanitizer to use for a particular parameter. May be null in order to unregister that parameter.

See also:

getAllowUnregisteredParamaters()

registerParameters

Added in API level 1

public void registerParameters (String[] parameters, 
                UrlQuerySanitizer.ValueSanitizer valueSanitizer)

See also:

registerParameter(String, ValueSanitizer)

setAllowUnregisteredParamaters

Added in API level 1

public void setAllowUnregisteredParamaters (boolean allowUnregisteredParamaters)

Set whether or not unregistered parameters are allowed. If they are not allowed, then they will be dropped when a query is sanitized.

Defaults to false.

Parameters
`allowUnregisteredParamaters`	`boolean`: true to allow unregistered parameters.

See also:

getAllowUnregisteredParamaters()

setPreferFirstRepeatedParameter

Added in API level 1

public void setPreferFirstRepeatedParameter (boolean preferFirstRepeatedParameter)

Set whether or not the first occurrence of a repeated parameter is preferred. True means the first repeated parameter is preferred. False means that the last repeated parameter is preferred.

The preferred parameter is the one that is returned when getParameter is called.

defaults to false.

Parameters
`preferFirstRepeatedParameter`	`boolean`: True if the first repeated parameter is preferred.

See also:

getPreferFirstRepeatedParameter()

setUnregisteredParameterValueSanitizer

Added in API level 1

public void setUnregisteredParameterValueSanitizer (UrlQuerySanitizer.ValueSanitizer sanitizer)

`String`

Protected methods

addSanitizedEntry

`value`	`String`: a sanitized unescaped value

clear

Added in API level 1

protected void clear ()

Clear the existing entries. Called to get ready to parse a new query string.

decodeHexDigit

Added in API level 1

protected int decodeHexDigit (char c)

Convert a character that represents a hexidecimal digit into an integer. If the character is not a hexidecimal digit, then -1 is returned. Both upper case and lower case hex digits are allowed.

Parameters
`c`	`char`: the hexidecimal digit.

Returns
`int`	the integer value of the hexidecimal digit.

isHexDigit

Added in API level 1

protected boolean isHexDigit (char c)

Test if a character is a hexidecimal digit. Both upper case and lower case hex digits are allowed.

Parameters
`c`	`char`: the character to test

Returns
`boolean`	true if c is a hex digit.

parseEntry

Added in API level 1

protected void parseEntry (String parameter, 
                String value)

Parse an escaped parameter-value pair. The default implementation unescapes both the parameter and the value, then looks up the effective value sanitizer for the parameter and uses it to sanitize the value. If all goes well then addSanitizedValue is called with the unescaped parameter and the sanitized unescaped value.

Parameters
`parameter`	`String`: an escaped parameter
`value`	`String`: an unsanitized escaped value
