gulp-base64-updated2 v0.1.8
gulp-base64 -> gulp-base64-updated2
This is a Fork from https://github.com/Wenqer/gulp-base64 it was made and published to NPM from the lack of response to security audits from the repo. Once the security audits are resolved if ever this repo will be removed.
The biggest change: replaced "request" with "axios"
The new npm package is gulp-base64-updated2
Gulp task for converting all files found within a stylesheet (those within a url( ... ) declaration) into base64-encoded data URI strings.

var base64 = require('gulp-base64-updated2');
//basic example
gulp.task('build', function () {

//example with options
gulp.task('build', function () {
    return gulp.src('./css/*.css')
        .pipe(base64({
            baseDir: 'public',
            extensions: ['svg', 'png', /\.jpg#datauri$/i],
            exclude:    [/\.server\.(com|net)\/dynamic\//, '--live.jpg'],
            maxImageSize: 8*1024, // bytes,
            deleteAfterEncoding: false,
            debug: true
        }))
        .pipe(concat('main.css'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./public/css'));
});Options
baseDir(String)
If you have absolute image paths in your stylesheet, the path specified in this option will be used as the base directory (relative to gulpfile).deleteAfterEncoding(Boolean)
Set this to true to delete images after they've been encoded. You'll want to do this in a staging area, and not in your source directories. Be careful.extensions(Array ofStringorRegExps)
Proccess only specified extensions.
Strings are matched against file-extension only, while RegExps are tested against the raw URL value.exclude(Array ofStringorRegExps)
Skip files with URLs that match these patterns.
Unlike with theextensionsoption Strings are sub-string matched against the whole URL value.maxImageSize(Number)
Maximum filesize in bytes for changing image to base64.debug(Boolean)
Enable log to console.
