Data.ByteString.Base64.URL

This module contains the combinators implementing the RFC 4648 specification for the Base64-URL encoding including unpadded and lenient variants

Documentation

encodeBase64 :: ByteString -> ByteString

Encode a ByteString in base64-url with padding.

See: RFC-4648 section 5

decodeBase64 :: ByteString -> Either Text ByteString

Decode a padded base64-url encoded ByteString

See: RFC-4648 section 4

encodeBase64Unpadded :: ByteString -> ByteString

Encode a ByteString in base64-url without padding.

Note: in some circumstances, the use of padding ("=") in base-encoded data is not required or used. If you are absolutely sure the length of your input data is divisible by 3, this function will be the same as encodeBase64 with padding. However, if not, you may see garbage appended to output in the form of "NUL".

Only call unpadded variants when you can make assumptions about the length of your input data.

See: RFC-4648 section 3.2

decodeBase64Unpadded :: ByteString -> Either Text ByteString

Decode an unpadded base64-url encoded ByteString

See: RFC-4648 section 4
