Struct base64ct::Decoder

pub struct Decoder<'i, E: Variant> { /* private fields */ }

Stateful Base64 decoder with support for buffered, incremental decoding.

The E type parameter can be any type which impls Encoding such as Base64 or Base64Unpadded.

Internally it uses a sealed Variant trait which is an implementation detail of this crate, and leverages a blanket impl of Encoding.

Implementations

impl<'i, E: Variant> Decoder<'i, E>

pub fn new(input: &'i [u8]) -> Result<Self, Error>

Create a new decoder for a byte slice containing contiguous (non-newline-delimited) Base64-encoded data.

Returns

• Ok(decoder) on success.
• Err(Error::InvalidLength) if the input buffer is empty.

pub fn new_wrapped(input: &'i [u8], line_width: usize) -> Result<Self, Error>

Create a new decoder for a byte slice containing Base64 which line wraps at the given line length.

Trailing newlines are not supported and must be removed in advance.

Newlines are handled according to what are roughly RFC7468 conventions:

[parsers] MUST handle different newline conventions

RFC7468 allows any of the following as newlines, and allows a mixture of different types of newlines:

eol        = CRLF / CR / LF

Returns

• Ok(decoder) on success.
• Err(Error::InvalidLength) if the input buffer is empty or the line width is zero.

pub fn decode<'o>(&mut self, out: &'o mut [u8]) -> Result<&'o [u8], Error>

Fill the provided buffer with data decoded from Base64.

Enough Base64 input data must remain to fill the entire buffer.

Returns

• Ok(bytes) if the expected amount of data was read
• Err(Error::InvalidLength) if the exact amount of data couldn’t be read

pub fn is_finished(&self) -> bool

Has all of the input data been decoded?

Trait Implementations

impl<'i, E: Clone + Variant> Clone for Decoder<'i, E>

fn clone(&self) -> Decoder<'i, E>

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
