@frsource/base64

This javascript code is used to encode / decode data using base64 (this encoding is designed to make binary data survive transport through transport layers that are not 8-bit clean). Script is fully compatible with UTF-8 encoding. You can use base64 encoded data as simple encryption mechanism.

If you plan using UTF-8 encoding in your project don’t forget to set the page encoding to UTF-8 (Content-Type meta tag).

Installation

npm i @frsource/base64

Usage

// Importing:
// typescript / ES6
import { encode, decode } from '@frsource/base64';

// legacy javscript
const { encode, decode } = require('@frsource/base64');

const encoded = encode('我喜欢解码lubię dekodować');
console.log(encoded); // output: 5oiR5Zac5qyi6Kej56CBbHViacSZIGRla29kb3dhxIc=
const decoded = decode(encoded);
console.log(encoded); // output: 我喜欢解码lubię dekodować
