Nativescript: Http Module Error: unsupported URL

[sitefinitysteve]

Did you verify this is a real problem by searching

Yup

Tell us about the problem

Please, ensure your title is less than 63 characters long and starts with a capital
letter.

var url = "https://www.outbreakhelp.ca/RestApi/app/resources?format=json&locale=fr-CA&type=actualit%C3%A9s";

http.getJSON(url).then(function (data) {
   //whatevs
 }, function (e) {
  //We crash Error: unsupported URL
});

So this works just fine in the browser with jQuery\KendoUI, the {N} module gives a big NOOOPE

Gonna close, suppose the fix is to encode the problem url parts!

I'm having the same issue, my URL is 97 characters long. I don't understand why the issue was closed.

@sitefinitysteve Hey mate, I'm experiencing the same issue.

Can you please advise as to how you encoded the problem parts?

[sitefinitysteve]

@sm1ddy Just give'r a

var myText = "23w%"#%$"#$^"#$^";
encodeURIComponent(myText)

@sitefinitysteve

Thanks mate, I've given it a go but still getting the same error. Basically I am trying to use this URL (which works fine on Android):

"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=" + pageModel.latitude + "," + pageModel.longitude + "&components=country:AU|administrative_area:TAS&key=MY_API_KEY";

From my testing I've narrowed down that this part breaks it:
"components=country:AU|administrative_area:TAS"

Even more specifically it seems to be the "|" character. Will make another post if I work out how to fix this.

Thats the chunk i would encode... You didn't encode the entire thing, just
that right?

Literally just ran my code only encoding "components=country:AU|administrative_area:TAS".

Seems to be working, maybe when I ran it before my changes didn't update... or I didn't save.

Thanks for your help :)
