$ cat test.rb
ENV['REQUEST_METHOD'] = 'GET'
ENV['QUERY_STRING'] = 'query1=%7Evalue1&query2=value1&query2=value2'
require "cgi"
cgi = CGI.new
p cgi.params

$ ruby test.rb
{"query2"=>["value1", "value2"], "query1"=>["~value1"]}

or

$ cat test.rb
require "cgi"
cgi = CGI.new
p cgi.params

$ export REQUEST_METHOD=GET
$ export QUERY_STRING='query1=%7Evalue1&query2=value1&query2=value2'
$ ruby test.rb
{"query2"=>["value1", "value2"], "query1"=>["~value1"]}
