Python 2

What you are looking for isurllib.quote_plus:

safe_string = urllib.quote_plus('string_of_characters_like_these:$#@=?%^Q^$') #Value: 'string_of_characters_like_these%3A%24%23%40%3D%3F%25%5EQ%5E%24'

Python 3

In Python 3, theurllibpackage has been broken into smaller components. You would useurllib.parse.quote_plus(note theparsesubmodule)

import urllib.parse safe_string = urllib.parse.quote_plus(...)

You need to pass the parameters tourlencode()as a map (dict) or sequence of tuples, for example:

>>> import urllib >>> f = { 'eventName' : 'myEvent', 'eventDescription' : 'cool event'} >>> urllib.urlencode(f) 'eventName=myEvent&eventDescription=cool+event'

Python 3 or higher

Usingurllib.parse.urlencode:

>>> urllib.parse.urlencode(f) eventName=myEvent&eventDescription=cool+event

Note that thisdoes notperform url encoding in the usual sense (see the output). To do this, useurllib.parse.quote_plus代码>.
