ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

According to the SWHID specification, it is not forbidden for a qualifier
value to contain a '=' character (for instance in origin URL).

So update parsing code to handle that special case.

I have a doubt whether the path percent encoding is expected or not here.

Paths containing = character are indeed percent encoded in the SWHID copiable from the webapp: https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/directory/3ded8cb4d4770f9451b2f27e1576a8508737d8a7/?path=r%3D6

I guess we should leave it as it is.

In the webapp, origin URL with a = character in it also got percent encoded to avoid generating invalid browse URL: https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/origin/directory/?origin_url=https://cran.r-project.org/package%3Dtelegram.bot.

I am wondering if we should not also force to percent encode = in qualifier value as we do for ;;

Too late for that; we can't know if there are SWHIDs in the wild with unescaped equal signs in them.

Ack, good news is that diff will fix SWHID resolution in the webapp when the = character in an origin URL is not percent encoded (currently it fails as expected).
