= cowboy_req:parse_qs(3)
== Name
cowboy_req:parse_qs - Parse the query string
== Description
[source,erlang]
----
parse_qs(Req :: cowboy_req:req())
-> [{Key :: binary(), Value :: binary() | true}]
----
Parse the query string as a list of key/value pairs.
== Arguments
Req::
The Req object.
== Return value
The parsed query string is returned as a list of key/value pairs.
The key is a binary string. The value is either a binary string,
or the atom `true`. Both key and value are case sensitive.
The atom `true` is returned when a key is present in the query
string without a value. For example, in the following URIs
the key `<<"edit">>` will always have the value `true`:
* `/posts/42?edit`
* `/posts/42?edit&exclusive=1`
* `/posts/42?exclusive=1&edit`
* `/posts/42?exclusive=1&edit&from=web`
== Changelog
* *2.0*: The parsed value is not longer cached in the Req object.
* *2.0*: Only the parsed query string is returned, it is no longer wrapped in a tuple.
* *2.0*: Function introduced. Replaces `qs_val/1` and `qs_vals/1`.
== Examples
.Parse the query string and convert the keys to atoms
[source,erlang]
----
ParsedQs = cowboy_req:parse_qs(Req),
AtomsQs = [{binary_to_existing_atom(K, latin1), V}
|| {K, V} <- ParsedQs].
