base64-js

base64-js does basic base64 encoding/decoding in pure JS.

build status

testling badge

Many browsers already have base64 encoding/decoding functionality, but it is for text data, not all-purpose binary data.

Sometimes encoding/decoding binary data in the browser is useful, and that is what this module does.

install

With npm do:

npm install base64-js

methods

var base64 = require('base64-js')

base64 has two exposed functions, toByteArray and fromByteArray, which both take a single argument.

  • toByteArray - Takes a base64 string and returns a byte array
  • fromByteArray - Takes a byte array and returns a base64 string

JavaScript requires Node with Gulp to "browserfy" the library. It's the easiest way I found to use the swagger-js project; bundle up a wrapping method.

There is no JavaScript reference guide. The swagger-js doesn't really document what they do very well, actually.

Overall I'm not particularly impressed by swagger-js, it was hard to even figure out what the right method syntax was. We may want to invest time in doing it better.

This required setting CORS response headers, which are currently defaulted to a fairly insecure setting.
