Parses an array into a valid query string encoded with rawurlencode().

Function rawurlencode() is RFC3986 compliant, and as a consequence RFC3987 compliant. The latter defines the required format of "URLs" in HTML5. urlencode() is almost the same as rawurlencode(), except that it encodes spaces as "+" instead of "%20". This makes its result non compliant to RFC3986 and as a consequence non compliant to RFC3987 and as a consequence not valid as a "URL" in HTML5.

Parameters

array $query: The query parameter array to be processed; for instance, \Drupal::request()->query->all().

string $parent: (optional) Internal use only. Used to build the $query array key for nested items. Defaults to an empty string.

Return value

string A string encoded with rawurlencode() which can be used as or appended to the URL query string.
