NAME

====

MIME::Base64 - Encoding and decoding Base64 ASCII strings

SYNOPSIS

========

```raku

use MIME::Base64;

my $encoded = MIME::Base64.encode-str("xyzzy‽", :eol("\x0D\x0A"));

my $decoded = MIME::Base64.decode-str($encoded);

```

or

```raku

use MIME::Base64;

my $encoded     = MIME::Base64.encode($blob, );

my $decoded-buf = MIME::Base64.decode($encoded);

```

DESCRIPTION

===========

Implements encoding and decoding to and from base64.

METHODS

=======

encode(Blob $data, :$oneline, :$eol = "\n" --> Str:D)

-----------------------------------------------------

Encodeѕ binary data `$data` in base64 format.

By default, the output is wrapped every 76 characters. If `:$oneline` is set, wrapping will be disabled. Also optionally takes a `:eol` named argument to indicate the type of line-ending to be used. Defaults to `"\n"`.

decode(Str:D $encoded --> Str:D)

--------------------------------

Decodes base64 encoded data into a binary buffer.

encode-str(Str:D $string, :$oneline, :$eol = "\n" --> Str:D)`

-------------------------------------------------------------

Encodes `$string` into base64, assuming utf8 encoding. By default, the output is wrapped every 76 characters. If `:$oneline` is set, wrapping will be disabled. Also optionally takes a `:eol` named argument to indicate the type of line-ending to be used. Defaults to `"\n"`.

decode-str(Str:D $encoded --> Str:D)`

-------------------------------------

Decodes `$encoded` into a string, assuming utf8 encoding.

COMPATIBILITY METHODS

=====================

encode_base64(Str:D $string --> Str:D)

--------------------------------------

Same as `.encode-str($string`.

decode_base64(Str:D $encoded --> Str:D)

---------------------------------------

Calls `.decode-str($encoded)`
