Generates a query string from the key-value pairs of the given object.
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` on `Object.entries(queryParameters)` to create the query string.
- Determine the `symbol` to be either `?` or `&` based on the length of `queryString`.
- Concatenate `val` to `queryString` only if it's a string.
- Return the `queryString` or an empty string when the `queryParameters` are falsy.
```js
const objectToQueryString = queryParameters => {
return queryParameters
? Object.entries(queryParameters).reduce(
(queryString, [key, val], index) => {
const symbol = queryString.length === 0 ? '?' : '&';
queryString +=
typeof val === 'string' ? `${symbol}${key}=${val}` : '';
return queryString;
},
''
)
: '';
};
```
```js
objectToQueryString({ page: '1', size: '2kg', key: undefined });
// '?page=1&size=2kg'
```
