Bracket Notation

Bracket Notation encodes structured data in formats with limited syntax, like URL queries and form data. It is used by OpenAPIHandler and OpenAPILink.

Usage

1. Same name (>=2 elements) are represented as an array.

   color=red&color=blue → { color: ["red", "blue"] }
   

2. Append [] at the end to denote an array.

   color[]=red&color[]=blue → { color: ["red", "blue"] }
   

3. Append [number] to specify an array index (missing indexes create sparse arrays).
