webbuf
Fast base64 and hex encoding/decoding for Rust and WebAssembly.
Installation
[dependencies]
webbuf = "0.13"
Usage
use webbuf::{encode_base64, decode_base64, encode_hex, decode_hex};
// Base64 encoding
let data = b"Hello, world!";
let base64_str = encode_base64(data);
assert_eq!(base64_str, "SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==");
// Base64 decoding
let decoded = decode_base64(&base64_str).unwrap();
assert_eq!(decoded, data);
// Hex encoding
let hex_str = encode_hex(data);
assert_eq!(hex_str, "48656c6c6f2c20776f726c6421");
// Hex decoding
let decoded = decode_hex(&hex_str).unwrap();
assert_eq!(decoded, data);
Decoding with Whitespace
Use decode_base64_strip_whitespace to decode base64 strings that may contain spaces, tabs, or newlines:
use webbuf::decode_base64_strip_whitespace;
let base64_with_whitespace = "SGVs bG8s\nIHdv cmxk IQ==";
let decoded = decode_base64_strip_whitespace(base64_with_whitespace).unwrap();
assert_eq!(decoded, b"Hello, world!");
API
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
encode_base64(data: &[u8]) -> String |
Encode bytes to base64 |
decode_base64(encoded: &str) -> Result<Vec<u8>, String> |
Decode base64 to bytes |
decode_base64_strip_whitespace(encoded: &str) -> Result<Vec<u8>, String> |
Decode base64, ignoring whitespace |
encode_hex(data: &[u8]) -> String |
Encode bytes to hex |
decode_hex(encoded: &str) -> Result<Vec<u8>, String> |
Decode hex to bytes |
WebAssembly
This crate compiles to WebAssembly. The TypeScript wrapper is available as @webbuf/webbuf on npm.
