Name
msys.base64.encode — Base64-encode a string
Synopsis
msys.base64.encode(original, fold, charset);
original: mixed fold: string, optional charset: string, optional
Description
original
can be a string or a msys.core:_ec_string
. This function returns a base64 encoded string. If fold
is true, the encoded string is folded at every 76 bytes by inserting a CRLF
after that position. By default, the character encoding for all text is UTF-8. If you would like to convert the text to a different character encoding before it is base64 encoded, then specify that as charset
.
Enable this function with the statement require('msys.base64');
.
