base91

npm version Build Status Coverage Status Codacy Badge PRs Welcome license

basE91 codec implemented in pure JavaScript.

Migrated from the C and PHP version of Joachim Henke's basE91.

Installation

$ npm i --save node-base91
# Or
$ yarn add node-base91

Usage

Encoding

const base91 = require('node-base91');
const fs = require('fs');

// accept string with utf8 encoding by default
const encodedText = base91.encode('Hello World!');
console.log(encodedText);  //=> >OwJh>Io0Tv!8PE

// accept string with specified encoding
const encodedUnicodeText = base91.encode('Hello World!', 'ucs2');
console.log(encodedUnicodeText);  //=> .AoE~l*hy(bAgA;DDn6yF"NAyA&AA

// accept Buffer
const encodedFile = base91.encode(fs.readFileSync('../../sayaka.jpg'));

// convert hex into base91
const encodedHash = base91.encode('ecfbfc2754db0c408223fa7917116867420ef60d', 'hex');
console.log(encodedHash);  //=> y>)~Q7e.XL{xWWXI#WJ2CKy>A

Decoding

const base91 = require('node-base91');

// with `encoding`, `decode` will return a string
const decodedText = base91.decode('>OwJh>Io0Tv!8PE', 'utf8');
console.log(decodedText);  //=> Hello World!

// without `encoding`, `decode` will return a buffer
const decodedBuffer = base91.decode('>OwJh>Io0Tv!8PE');
console.log(decodedBuffer);  //=> <Buffer 48 65 6c 6c 6f 20 57 6f 72 6c 64 21>

// convert base91 into hex
const decodedHash = base91.decode('y>)~Q7e.XL{xWWXI#WJ2CKy>A', 'hex');
console.log(decodedHash);  //=> ecfbfc2754db0c408223fa7917116867420ef60d

Stream

const base91 = require('node-base91');
const fs = require('fs');

// encoding
fs
  .createReadStream('package.json')
  .pipe(new base91.EncodeStream())
  .pipe(fs.createWriteStream('package.json.base91'))
  .on('close', () => {
    console.log(fs.readFileSync('package.json.base91', 'utf8'));
    //=> sd:CAYEIW$iwyCAMlref_f,Hb%&@8YvPM"^Xxp)z7gg .......

    // decoding
    fs
      .createReadStream('package.json.base91')
      .pipe(new base91.DecodeStream())
      .pipe(fs.createWriteStream('package.json.decoded'))
      .on('close', () => {
        const origin = fs.readFileSync('package.json');
        const deEncoded = fs.readFileSync('package.json.decoded');
        console.log(Buffer.compare(origin, deEncoded) === 0); //=> true
      });
  });

API

encode(data, encoding = 'utf8')

  • data (String | Buffer) - Data to be encoded, can be either String or Buffer.
  • encoding (String) - The encoding of data string. Default: 'utf8'. This argument is ignored when data is already a Buffer.
  • returns (String) - basE91 encoded string.

decode(data, encoding)

  • data (String) - basE91 string to be decoded.
  • encoding (String) - The string encoding of decoded data. If encoding is not specified, it will return a Buffer.
  • returns (String | Buffer) - Decoded buffer or string.
