A fast percent decoding method like decodeURIComponent without throwing errors.

importdeurifrom'deuri';deuri('hello%20world');// 'hello world'deuri('%C3%28');// '�('

Invalid sequences are replaced with U+FFFD character, which matches node:querystringunescape() method behavior.

Performance

deuri is ~1.5x faster than native decodeURIComponent and 2x faster than fast-decode-uri-component at decoding inputs with valid sequences.

For inputs with invalid sequences, deuri is ~1.1x faster than fast-decode-uri-component and ~70x faster than native decodeURIComponent (as it throws).

Run the benchmarks in bench directory on Github if you want to verify the result yourself.

Credits

The algorithm was tuned from fast-decode-uri-component to improve performance and support replacing invalid sequences.
