Remove quotes from String Variables when used in URL/Params

Win 11,

Yaak-2024.8.0-beta.2

At the moment, variables are replaced "as-is" with their corresponding value. This means that if you have a string variable and use it in query params or the URL itself, the surrounding quotes are also included in the URL - invalidating it.

Solution:

  • :)Treat single and double quoted strings differently. e.g. double removes quotes in URL/params (keeps it for other uses) and single forces quote use in all variable cases

  • :) Remove all surrounding quotes in each variable when used in URL/params

  • :/ Document that it's not advised to use quoted strings as variables and stringify them when you use them

Unsure whether to class this as a bug or improvement, but it did take a while to figure this behaviour out so it appears as a bug to new users.

Love the app, thank you for your work
