Incorporating decodeURI() for non-Latin Character Results?

[brentbiglin]

Hello! I'm wondering if it would be possible for the output to be decoded. I'm using this for a project in the Arabic language and the output is encoded unicode text.

Hi @brentbiglin. Did you try to use the hl parameter (preferred language) in the optionsObject? Set hl='ar' for Arabic. I actually haven't tried this at all so I'm not sure how it will affect the results if at all...

[brentbiglin]

Hey, Patrick. I appreciate you taking a look. I had the language set to Arabic, but it was coming out encoded. This was my solution:

console.log(JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(res)));

It worked like a charm!

I can set up a pull request if you want to take a look and maybe merge it.

@brentbiglin Hmm, do you mean it was coming out as nested [object]? I'm not sure how JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(res)) would have solved a decoding problem

[pat310]

@brentbiglin if you could post an example of the encoded results that would be great!

Sorry, Patrick! Got caught up with work. With the JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(res)), I get the following output:

@brentbiglin no worries. Thanks for posting the example. That's cool that JSON.parse decodes unicode. My only worry is if the result is not valid JSON then an error will be thrown... This is similar to #63. Maybe I will JSON.parse. If there is an error just catch it and return what the original string was without JSON.parse... The other option is to decodeURIComponent, but that also throws an error if used incorrectly.

@brentbiglin Made a PR for this #74, thanks!

Arabic really complicates things digitally! Glad to be of help.
