Window.escape compatible encoder #14281

Open jbdeboer opened 10 years ago

jbdeboer commented 10 years ago

In AngularJS, we use window.escape to escape our cookie values:

From MDN, " Encodes a string, replacing all characters except for ASCII digits, lower and upper case letters, and the characters * + - . / @­ _ with a hexadecimal escape sequence. "

There should be an equivalent function in Dart so that we can share cookies between Dart and Javascript.

Note, there are other functions in Dart that "percent-encode", but since we have a limited number of bytes to store cookies, we can not be over-zealous in what we escape.

The closest things in Dart are Uri.encodeFull and Uri.encodeComponent, but they don't omit the same characters, and they don't use %uxxxx encoding for >8-bit characters.

Would it be possible to use Uri.encodeComponent in Dart and encodeUriComponent in JS?

Removed Type-Defect label. Added Type-Enhancement label.
