Rails params escape/unescape +

I want to get params of query without replacing + to " ". By default, Rails parse + like space. 

Example /query?p=abc+abc

params[:p] = 'abc abc', not 'abc+abc'

How to get param without escaping?

Yes, I can do .gsub(/[ ]/, '+') , but how to get original params before rails unescape them?

I'm not sure that's possible. The same code that converts plus to space also handles decoding %NN characters as well. You can get the raw query string (for a GET request) using request.query_string. It will return something like this: one=two+three&four=five+six.
