Crate b58

A Base58 encoding/decoding library with no external dependencies.

This library provides encoding and decoding functionality for Base58 format with support for multiple alphabets including Bitcoin (default), Ripple, and Flickr.

Examples

use b58::{encode, decode, encode_with_alphabet, decode_with_alphabet, Alphabet};

// Using default Bitcoin alphabet
let data = b"Hello, World!";
let encoded = encode(data);
let decoded = decode(&encoded).unwrap();
assert_eq!(data, decoded.as_slice());

// Using Ripple alphabet
let encoded_ripple = encode_with_alphabet(data, Alphabet::Ripple);
let decoded_ripple = decode_with_alphabet(&encoded_ripple, Alphabet::Ripple).unwrap();
assert_eq!(data, decoded_ripple.as_slice());

Enums

Alphabet

Enum representing different Base58 alphabets.

DecodeError

Error type for Base58 decoding failures.

Functions

decode

Decodes a Base58 string into a byte vector using the default Bitcoin alphabet.

decode_with_alphabet

Decodes a Base58 string into a byte vector using the specified alphabet.

encode

Encodes a byte slice into a Base58 string using the default Bitcoin alphabet.

encode_with_alphabet

Encodes a byte slice into a Base58 string using the specified alphabet.
