Question

I am new to Groovy and I am trying to parse header from my REST service response.
The string is below:

[http://localhost:4545/third-party-web?code=IVJZw1]

I am trying to code IVJZw1.

It is easy and I hope I get help quick.

If the square brakets are stripped off, it’s just an URL. You could try something like this:

import java.net.*
def str = '[http://localhost:4545/third-party-web?code=IVJZw1]'
def url = new URL(str.replaceFirst('^\\[', '').replaceFirst(']$', ''))
def paramMap = url.query.split('&').collectEntries { param -> 
    param.split('=').collect { URLDecoder.decode(it) }
}
assert paramMap['code'] == 'IVJZw1'
