cross-seed is sending double-urlencoded search strings to Prowlarr

[sjtuross]

Currently non-Latin characters in torrent name is got encoded and then sent to indexers as search term. So no torrents can be matched.

For example, these Chinese characters 蜘蛛侠：平行宇宙 are encoded to %E8%9C%98%E8%9B%9B%E4%BE%A0%EF%BC%9A%E5%B9%B3%E8%A1%8C%E5%AE%87%E5%AE%99 as part of the search term as shown in the cross-seed log and prowlarr log.

Is there a way to send the original term or the decoded version?

@bakerboy I would have thought that URL encoding the search term is spec-compliant?

[bakerboy448]

@Qstick?

[bakerboy448]

seems to be double encoded on cross-seeds end

[mmgoodnow]

ok i see as well:

> const str = "%25E8%259C%2598%25E8%259B%259B%25E4%25BE%25A0%25EF%25BC%259A%25E5%25B9%25B3%25E8%25A1%258C%25E5%25AE%2587%25E5%25AE%2599+Spider+Man+Into+The+Spider+Verse+2018"

> decodeURIComponent(str)
'%E8%9C%98%E8%9B%9B%E4%BE%A0%EF%BC%9A%E5%B9%B3%E8%A1%8C%E5%AE%87%E5%AE%99+Spider+Man+Into+The+Spider+Verse+2018'

> decodeURIComponent(decodeURIComponent(str))
'蜘蛛侠：平行宇宙+Spider+Man+Into+The+Spider+Verse+2018'
