base64

base64 defines base64 encoding & decoding functions, often used to represent binary as text.

Functions

encode(src,encoding="standard") string

return the base64 encoding of src

Parameters

name	type	description
src	string	source string to encode to base64
encoding	string	optional. string to set encoding dialect. allowed values are: standard,standard_raw,url,url_raw

Examples

basic

encode a string as base64

load("base64", "encode")
encoded = encode("hello world!")
print(encoded)
# Output: aGVsbG8gd29ybGQh

decode(src,encoding="standard") string

parse base64 input, giving back the plain string representation

Parameters

name	type	description
src	string	source string of base64-encoded text
encoding	string	optional. string to set decoding dialect. allowed values are: standard,standard_raw,url,url_raw

Examples

basic

encode a string as base64

load("base64", "decode")
decoded = decode("aGVsbG8gd29ybGQh")
print(decoded)
# Output: hello world!

Overview

Package base64 defines base64 encoding & decoding functions for Starlark.

Migrated from: https://github.com/qri-io/starlib/tree/master/encoding/base64

Constants

const ModuleName = "base64"

ModuleName defines the expected name for this Module when used in starlark's load() function, eg: load('base64', 'encode')

Variables

var Encodings = map[string]*gobase64.Encoding{

	"standard": gobase64.StdEncoding,

	"standard_raw": gobase64.RawStdEncoding,

	"url": gobase64.URLEncoding,

	"url_raw": gobase64.RawURLEncoding,
}

Encodings is a map of strings to encoding formats. It is used to select the encoding format for the base64 module. You can add your own encoding formats to this map.

Functions

func LoadModule

func LoadModule() (starlark.StringDict, error)

LoadModule loads the base64 module. It is concurrency-safe and idempotent.
