Crate const_base 

For decoding/encoding base 64/32/16 strings at compile-time.

Examples

Encoding

use const_base::{encode_as_str, Config};

{
    // the encoding macros can take both `&str` and `&[u8]` constants.
    const OUTA: &str = encode_as_str!("foo", Config::B64);
    const OUTB: &str = encode_as_str!(b"foo", Config::B64);
     
    assert_eq!(OUTA, "Zm9v");
    assert_eq!(OUTB, "Zm9v");
}
{
    const BYTES: &[u8] = b"hello";

    // the encoding macros can encode_as_str non-literal constants
    const OUT: &str = encode_as_str!(BYTES, Config::B64_URL_SAFE);
     
    assert_eq!(OUT, "aGVsbG8=");
}

Decoding

use const_base::{decode, Config};

{
    const OUT: &[u8] = decode!("MZXW6===", Config::B32);
     
    assert_eq!(OUT, b"foo");
}
{
    const BYTES: &[u8] = b"f000";

    // this macro can decode non-literal constants
    const OUT: &[u8] = decode!(BYTES, Config::HEX);
     
    assert_eq!(OUT, &[0xF0, 0x00]);
}

No-std support

const_base is #![no_std], it can be used anywhere Rust can be used.

Minimum Supported Rust Version

const_base requires Rust 1.64.0.

Modules

errors

All the errors from this crate.

utils

Miscelaneous utility functions.

Macros

decode

Decodes the $slice constant into a &[u8; N] with the encoding determined by $config.

encode

Encodes the $slice constant into a &'static ArrayStr<LEN>, with the encoding determined by $config.

encode_as_str

Encodes the $slice constant into a &'static str, with the encoding determined by $config.

Structs

ArrayStr

A utf-8 byte array

Config

For configuring how a string is encoded/decoded.

Enums

B32CharSet

Determines which characters are used for the Base32 encoding

B64CharSet

Determines which characters are used for the Base64 encoding

Encoding

Determines which encoding is used.

HexCharSet

Determines which characters are used for the Hexadecimal encoding

Functions

decode

Decodes input into a [u8; OUT] with the encoding determined by config.

decoded_len

Computes the length of the string obtained from decoding encoded with the encoding determined by config.

encode

Encodes input into an ArrayStr<OUT> with the encoding determined by config.

encoded_len

Computes the length of the encoded string from the unencoded_length, using the encoding determined by config.
