Data.ByteString.Base64.URL

Description

This module contains the combinators implementing the RFC 4648 specification for the Base64-URL encoding including unpadded and lenient variants

Synopsis

Documentation

encodeBase64 :: ByteString -> Text Source #

Encode a ByteString value as a Base64url Text value with padding.

See: RFC-4648 section 5

encodeBase64' :: ByteString -> ByteString Source #

Encode a ByteString as a Base64url ByteString value with padding.

See: RFC-4648 section 5

decodeBase64 :: ByteString -> Either Text ByteString Source #

Decode a padded Base64url encoded ByteString value. If its length is not a multiple of 4, then padding chars will be added to fill out the input to a multiple of 4 for safe decoding as Base64url-encoded values are optionally padded.

For a decoder that fails on unpadded input of incorrect size, use decodeBase64Unpadded.

See: RFC-4648 section 4

encodeBase64Unpadded :: ByteString -> Text Source #

Encode a ByteString value as Base64url Text without padding. Note that for Base64url, padding is optional. If you call this function, you will simply be encoding as Base64url and stripping padding chars from the output.

See: RFC-4648 section 3.2

encodeBase64Unpadded' :: ByteString -> ByteString Source #

Encode a ByteString value as Base64url without padding. Note that for Base64url, padding is optional. If you call this function, you will simply be encoding as Base64url and stripping padding chars from the output.

See: RFC-4648 section 3.2

decodeBase64Unpadded :: ByteString -> Either Text ByteString Source #

Decode a padded Base64url-encoded ByteString value. If its length is not a multiple of 4, then padding chars will not be added to fill out the input to a multiple of 4.

In general, unless unpadded Base64url is explicitly required, it is safer to call decodeBase64.

See: RFC-4648 section 4

decodeBase64Lenient :: ByteString -> ByteString Source #

Leniently decode an unpadded Base64url-encoded ByteString. This function will not generate parse errors. If input data contains padding chars, then the input will be parsed up until the first pad character.

Note: This is not RFC 4648-compliant.

isBase64Url :: ByteString -> Bool Source #

Tell whether a ByteString is Base64url-encoded.

isValidBase64Url :: ByteString -> Bool Source #

Tell whether a ByteString is a valid Base64url format.

This will not tell you whether or not this is a correct Base64url representation, only that it conforms to the correct shape. To check whether it is a true Base64 encoded ByteString value, use isBase64Url.
