下面是我的嵌入式系统busybox ash shell版本，我最初采用了Orwellophile的变体:

urlencode()
{
    local S="${1}"
    local encoded=""
    local ch
    local o
    for i in $(seq 0 $((${#S} - 1)) )
    do
        ch=${S:$i:1}
        case "${ch}" in
            [-_.~a-zA-Z0-9]) 
                o="${ch}"
                ;;
            *) 
                o=$(printf '%%%02x' "'$ch")                
                ;;
        esac
        encoded="${encoded}${o}"
    done
    echo ${encoded}
}

urldecode() 
{
    # urldecode <string>
    local url_encoded="${1//+/ }"
    printf '%b' "${url_encoded//%/\\x}"
}

这是orwellophile回答的ksh版本，包含rawurlencode和rawurldecode函数(链接:如何为curl命令urlencode数据?)我没有足够的代表发表评论，因此有了新的帖子。

#!/bin/ksh93

function rawurlencode
{
    typeset string="${1}"
    typeset strlen=${#string}
    typeset encoded=""

    for (( pos=0 ; pos<strlen ; pos++ )); do
        c=${string:$pos:1}
        case "$c" in
            [-_.~a-zA-Z0-9] ) o="${c}" ;;
            * )               o=$(printf '%%%02x' "'$c")
        esac
        encoded+="${o}"
    done
    print "${encoded}"
}

function rawurldecode
{
    printf $(printf '%b' "${1//%/\\x}")
}

print $(rawurlencode "C++")     # --> C%2b%2b
print $(rawurldecode "C%2b%2b") # --> C++

使用curl——data-urlencode;来自man curl:

它发布数据，类似于其他——data选项，不同的是它执行url编码。为了与cgi兼容，<data>部分应该以名称开头，后面跟着分隔符和内容规范。

使用示例:

curl \
    --data-urlencode "paramName=value" \
    --data-urlencode "secondParam=value" \
    http://example.com

有关更多信息，请参阅手册页。

这需要curl 7.18.0或更新版本(发布于2008年1月)。使用curl -V来检查您拥有的版本。

你也可以对查询字符串进行编码:

curl --get \
    --data-urlencode "p1=value 1" \
    --data-urlencode "p2=value 2" \
    http://example.com
    # http://example.com?p1=value%201&p2=value%202

问题是关于在bash中这样做，不需要python或perl，因为实际上有一个命令，它完全是你想要的-“urlencode”。

value=$(urlencode "${2}")

这也更好，因为上面的perl答案，例如，没有正确编码所有字符。尝试使用从Word中获得的长破折号，你会得到错误的编码。

注意，你需要安装"gridsite-clients"来提供这个命令:

sudo apt install gridsite-clients

我发现下面的代码片段很有用，可以将它插入到一个程序调用链中，其中URI::Escape可能没有安装:

perl -p -e 's/([^A-Za-z0-9])/sprintf("%%%02X", ord($1))/seg'

# Title      :  urlencode - encode URL data
# Author     :  Heiner Steven (heiner.steven@odn.de)
# Date       :  2000-03-15
# Requires   :  awk
# Categories :  File Conversion, WWW, CGI
# SCCS-Id.   :  @(#) urlencode  1.4 06/10/29
##########################################################################
# Description
#   Encode data according to
#       RFC 1738: "Uniform Resource Locators (URL)" and
#       RFC 1866: "Hypertext Markup Language - 2.0" (HTML)
#
#   This encoding is used i.e. for the MIME type
#   "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
#
# Notes
#    o  The default behaviour is not to encode the line endings. This
#   may not be what was intended, because the result will be
#   multiple lines of output (which cannot be used in an URL or a
#   HTTP "POST" request). If the desired output should be one
#   line, use the "-l" option.
#
#    o  The "-l" option assumes, that the end-of-line is denoted by
#   the character LF (ASCII 10). This is not true for Windows or
#   Mac systems, where the end of a line is denoted by the two
#   characters CR LF (ASCII 13 10).
#   We use this for symmetry; data processed in the following way:
#       cat | urlencode -l | urldecode -l
#   should (and will) result in the original data
#
#    o  Large lines (or binary files) will break many AWK
#       implementations. If you get the message
#       awk: record `...' too long
#        record number xxx
#   consider using GNU AWK (gawk).
#
#    o  urlencode will always terminate it's output with an EOL
#       character
#
# Thanks to Stefan Brozinski for pointing out a bug related to non-standard
# locales.
