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

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

basic

encode a string as base64

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

decode(src,encoding="standard") string

parse base64 input, giving back the plain string representation

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

basic

encode a string as base64

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