Hi team,
I am looking for urlencode for piCore.
Can someone tell me, what this the proper procedure to find any utility?
I have looked for things like urlencode.tcz in all platforms and looked in various utility extensions thinking it might be buried in one of these.
I have exhausted my search capabilities. :P
I ended up writing a shell script but it has proven to be way too slow for encoding large files.
Reason: I am using the pastebin API and it requires the paste text to be encoded before uploading it.
regards
Greg

run "tce" then use the <P>rovides option.
In your case, it returns the extension Bluefish.tcz, which has a python program called urlencode.py (may work for you, that is the only thing in piCore right now)
From an apt enabled machine, you can run "apt-file search urlencode" and that will return all of the packages that include that file....urlencode is part of the gridsite-clients package.......which source code can be found at www.gridsite.org (which is currently down) so you can get the debian source from http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gridsite/gridsite_2.2.6.orig.tar.gz
I tried to compile it....but I need to hunt a few dependencies first.

Wow, that is a pretty heavy program for something that sounds so simple......requires libraries
libc-ares2 libcanl-c2 libgridsite2 libgsoap5
are you posting to a website? have you looked into curl --data-urlencode option?

Thanks Paul_123 for the time spent helping me.
I did use tce and saw Bluefish.tcz but didn't follow it through as you did. piCore now has micropython !
Thanks for the apt tips and links. I will investigate further.
I was hoping for a small program with no additional dependencies as we are trying to keep piCorePlayer as small and simple as possible.

Hi Paul_123 link,
Yes, pastebin.com. I have used wget to post the files because it was already part of piCore, but in the end I used wget.tcz as the basic wget didn't have an option I needed.
curl was the other option that I did not pursue. Maybe I need to reconsider if it solves my urlencode issue. :D
Thanks

Hate to do it, but there is always an option of statically linking the binary to get around the need for a bunch of extra library extensions
curl is not that bloated if it works for you.

You can try MicroPython library, see
https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib
urlencode is here:

Or this urlencode_build script ?! http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,18712.msg114569.html#msg114569
