This removes keys with empty values from input objects before interpolating them into templated URIs.
Otherwise an input like this:
{
"foo": 1,
"bar": ""
}
.. Get's mapped to a URI like this:
host.com?foo=1&bar=
With this change, the case above results in
host.com?foo=1
null or empty string fields will be ignored. Not sure this is desirable for all cases but it makes sense as a rule of thumb.
Why
The same can be achieved by editing the input object manually in the provided text-area and removing the unwanted properties, but that gets annoying when there are too many optional properties.
