I am rendering a URL by user input. There if user enter a string with two words I want to print the word with + in between
Example
key = input("Enter the product :")
URL = "http://exmaple.com/"
print (URL)
User input: iPhone 11
For the above code, I get a URL as "http://exmaple.com/iphone 11"
But I want to print the URL as "http://exmaple.com/iphone+11"
try encoding the key:
import urllib.parse
key = input("Enter the product :")
path = urllib.parse.quote_plus(key)
URL = "http://exmaple.com/{}".format(path)
print (URL)
a possible solution is this:
key = input("Enter the product :") # product has to have exactly one space between
# otherwise you have to make additional checks
URL = "http://exmaple.com/{}".format(key.strip().replace(" ", "+"))
print(URL)
You can make use urlparse like below:
from urllib.parse import urljoin, quote_plus
key = input("Enter the product :")
final_url = urljoin( "http://exmaple.com/", quote_plus(key))
print(final_url)
# 'http://exmaple.com/iPhone+11'
