How To Install libdata-uriencode-perl on Kali Linux

Introduction

What is libdata-uriencode-perl

libdata-uriencode-perl is:

The world of the web works off of URI’s. The Query string portion of URIs already support encoding of key/value paired data - they just don’t natively allow for complex data structures.

There are modules or encodings that do support arbitrarily complex data structures. JSON, YAML and Data::Dumper all have their own way of encoding complex structures. But then to pass them across the web, you usually still have to URL encode them and pass them via a form parameter.

Data::URIEncode allows for encoding and decoding complex (multi level) data structures using native Query String manipulators (such as CGI.pm). It takes complex data and turns it into a flat hashref which can then be turned into a URI query string using URL encoding. It also takes a flat hashref of data passed in and translates it back to a complex structure.
