qs-iconv bridges the gap between qs (a query string parser/stringifier) and iconv-lite (a character encoding converter). This package enables qs to handle non-UTF-8 encoded query strings gracefully. By utilizing iconv-lite for encoding conversion, it allows developers to parse and stringify query strings in encodings like GBK or Shift_JIS, which standard qs cannot process directly, preventing encoding-related issues in applications.
The npm package qs-iconv has seen very infrequent releases. The initial burst of activity occurred in May 2016 with 4 versions published. A single version was released in November 2016. Since then, there have been no further releases for over 8 years, including no releases in 2025 up to August 28th.
qs-iconv downloads show a fluctuating trend. From February 2024 to May 2025, downloads generally decreased. June and July 2025 saw increases. August 2025 exhibits an unusual spike, but the month is incomplete, making it hard to draw solid conclusions about the latest download trend.
