std.base64

Encoding / Decoding Base64 format.

Implemented according to RFC 4648 - The Base16.

Example:

ubyte[] data = [0x14, 0xfb, 0x9c, 0x03, 0xd9, 0x7e];

const(char)[] encoded = Base64.encode(data);
assert(encoded == "FPucA9l+");

ubyte[] decoded = Base64.decode("FPucA9l+");
assert(decoded == [0x14, 0xfb, 0x9c, 0x03, 0xd9, 0x7e]);

Support Range interface using Encoder / Decoder.

Example:

// Create MIME Base64 with CRLF, per line 76.
File f = File("./text.txt", "r");
scope(exit) f.close();

Appender!string mime64 = appender!string;

foreach (encoded; Base64.encoder(f.byChunk(57)))
{
    mime64.put(encoded);
    mime64.put("\r\n");
}

writeln(mime64.data);

alias Base64 = Base64Impl!('+', '/', '=');

The Base64

alias Base64URL = Base64Impl!('-', '_', '=');

The "URL and Filename safe" Base64

template Base64Impl(char Map62th, char Map63th, char Padding = '=')

Core implementation for Base64 format.

Example:

alias Base64   = Base64Impl!('+', '/');                    // The Base64 format(Already defined).
alias Base64Re = Base64Impl!('!', '=', Base64.NoPadding);  // non-standard Base64 format for Regular expression

NOTE:
encoded-string doesn't have padding character if set Padding parameter to NoPadding.

struct Encoder(Range) if (isInputRange!Range && (is(ElementType!Range : const(ubyte)[]) || is(ElementType!Range : const(char)[])));

@property @trusted bool empty();

Range primitive operation that checks iteration state.

Returns:
true if there are no more elements to be iterated.

nothrow @property @safe char[] front();

Range primitive operation that returns the currently iterated element.

Returns:
the encoded string.

void popFront();

Range primitive operation that advances the range to its next element.

Throws:
an Exception when you try to call popFront on empty range.

@property typeof(this) save();

Captures a Range state.

Returns:
a copy of this.

struct Encoder(Range) if (isInputRange!Range && is(ElementType!Range : ubyte));

Range that encodes single character at a time.

const nothrow @property @safe bool empty();

Range primitive operation that checks iteration state.

Returns:
true if there are no more elements to be iterated.

nothrow @property @safe ubyte front();

Range primitive operation that returns the currently iterated element.

Returns:
the encoded character.

void popFront();

@property typeof(this) save();

Encoder!Range encoder(Range)(Range range) if (isInputRange!Range);

Iterates through an InputRange at a time by using Encoder.

Default Encoder encodes chunk data.

Example:

File f = File("text.txt", "r");
scope(exit) f.close();

uint line = 0;
foreach (encoded; Base64.encoder(f.byLine()))
{
    writeln(++line, ". ", encoded);
}

In addition, You can use Encoder that returns encoded single character. This Encoder performs Range-based and lazy encoding.

Example:

ubyte[] data = cast(ubyte[]) "0123456789";

// The ElementType of data is not aggregation type
foreach (encoded; Base64.encoder(data))
{
    writeln(encoded);
}

Range range

an InputRange to iterate.

Returns:
a Encoder object instantiated and initialized according to the arguments.

Decoder!Range decoder(Range)(Range range) if (isInputRange!Range);

Iterates through an InputRange at a time by using Decoder.

Default Decoder decodes chunk data.

Example:

    writeln(decoded);
}

In addition, You can use Decoder that returns decoded single character. This Decoder performs Range-based and lazy decoding.

Example:

auto encoded = Base64.encoder(cast(ubyte[])"0123456789");
foreach (n; map!q{a - '0'}(Base64.decoder(encoded)))

If you use ByChunk, chunk-size should be the multiple of 4. Decoder can't judge a encode-boundary.

Parameters:

Range range

an InputRange to iterate.

Returns:
a Decoder object instantiated and initialized according to the arguments.

class Base64Exception: object.Exception;

Exception thrown on Base64 errors.
