If I convert a hash to a query string, how can I convert it

  • 0

If I convert a hash to a query string, how can I convert it back again?

{:filters => {:colour => ['Red', 'Blue'], :size => 'Medium'}}.to_param
=> "filters[colour][]=Red&filters[colour][]=Blue&filters[size]=Medium"

Rails appears to do this automatically when it populates the params hash, but is it possible to call this method directly?

Thanks.

    You’re looking for Rack::Utils.parse_nested_query(query), which will convert it back into a Hash. You can get it by using this line:

    require 'rack/utils'
