urlencoding in Dart

dart, urlencode

Solution

Update: There is now support for encode/decode URI in the Dart Uri class

Dart's URI code is placed in a separate library called dart:uri (so it can be shared between both `dart:html` and `dart:io`). It looks like it currently does not include a `urlencode` function so your best alternative, for now, is probably to use this Dart implementation of JavaScript's `encodeUriComponent`.

Problem

Is there a function to do urlencoding in Dart? I am doing a AJAX call using XMLHttpRequest object and I need the url to be url encoded. I did a search on dartlang.org, but it didn't turn up any results.
