This URL library provides numerous utilities to work with URLs. Some of the most useful URL utilities are described below.

URL Utilities

Encoder

The Magento\Framework\Url\EncoderInterface provides a method to encode the URL provided to it into a base64 format and also escapes the special charaters described in the table below.

Decoder

The Magento\Framework\Url\DecoderInterface provides a method to decode the base64 encoded URL provided to it and also decodes the special characters described in the table below.

Usage

Declare DecoderInterface and EncoderInterface as a constructor dependency to get an instance of these classes.

Copy
use Magento\Framework\Url\DecoderInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Url\EncoderInterface;

/**
 * @var EncoderInterface
 */
private $encoder;

/**
 * @var DecoderInterface
 */
private $decoder;

/**
  * QuickCartTaxInput constructor.
  *
  * @param EncoderInterface $encoder
  * @param DecoderInterface $decoder
  */
public function __construct(
    EncoderInterface $encoder,
    DecoderInterface $decoder
) {
  $this->encoder = $encoder;
  $this->decoder = $decoder;
}

/**
 * Encodes URL to base64 format and escapes special characters.
 *
 * @param string $url
 *
 * @return string
 */
public function encodeURL($url): string
{
  return $this->encoder->encode($url);
}

/**
 * Decodes URL from base64 format and special characters.
 *
 * @param string $encodedUrl
 *
 * @return string
 */
public function decodeURL($encodedUrl): string
{
  return $this->decoder->decode($encodedUrl);
}
