Perl + RISON

nikster has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks.
Today I learned that a thing called RISON exists: https://github.com/Nanonid/rison.
I stumbled upon it as I was writing a script that (amongst other things) generates several Links, one of them is a Kibana URL, so people can see related logs.
It turned out that this is no simple task.
First I tried to escape the URI manually, didn't seem too hard.
Then I tried uri::escape.

At last I started googling around and found RISON (it's a data serialization Format used in Kibana URLs).
I didn't find much more on it though - is anyone of you aware of a perl encoder for RISON?

thanks and best regards

Hi I'm not aware of any Perl implementation, but translating the js code in https://github.com/Nanonid/rison shouldn't be too difficult. HTH :) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

I suppose it really depends upon what sort of information you actually can rely upon a web-browser to keep "as part of the browser-history URL."	[reply]

Thanks for your answers but it turned out to be a "simple" html encoding problem. Even though I had used escape::uri and escaped the url manually, it worked finally after replacing an ampersand not by "%26" and/or "& \amp" but by '& # 038'. Hadn't thought about that, a years old stackoverflow thread had the solution. best regards	[reply]
