@algorithm.ts/base64 v4.0.3

A typescript implementation of the base64 encoding. Unlike traditional implementations, this project uses Uint8Array to represent byte streams.

Install

• npm

  npm install --save @algorithm.ts/base64

• yarn

  yarn add @algorithm.ts/base64

Usage

• encode: Encode a Uint8Array into base64 encoded string.

  // node env: import { TextEncoder } from 'util'
  import { encode } from '@algorithm.ts/base64'
  
  const getBytes = (text: string): Uint8Array => {
    const textEncoder = new TextEncoder()
    const data: Uint8Array = textEncoder.encode(text)
    return data
  }
  
  encode(getBytes('Hello, world!')) // => 'SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ=='

• decode: Decode a base64 encoded string to Uint8Array

  import { decode } from '@algorithm.ts/base64'
  
  const data: Uint8Array = decode('SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==')
  const textDecoder = new TextDecoder()
  textDecoder.decode(data) // => 'Hello, world!'

• validate: Check if a string is base64 encoded.

  validate('SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==') // => true

• Custom code map.

  // node env: import { TextEncoder } from 'util'
  import { Base64 } from '@algorithm.ts/base64'
  
  const getBytes = (text: string): Uint8Array => {
    const textEncoder = new TextEncoder()
    const data: Uint8Array = textEncoder.encode(text)
    return data
  }
  
  const base64 = new Base64({
    CODES: '#ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+'
  })
  base64.encode(getBytes('Hello, world!')) // => RFUraF7rHGcublwjHP==
