base64 
Lua module for encoding/base64
Usage
Encoding
local base64 = require("base64")
s = base64.RawStdEncoding:encode_to_string("foo\01bar")
print(s)
Zm9vAWJhcg
s = base64.StdEncoding:encode_to_string("foo\01bar")
print(s)
Zm9vAWJhcg==
s = base64.RawURLEncoding:encode_to_string("this is a <tag> and should be encoded")
print(s)
dGhpcyBpcyBhIDx0YWc-IGFuZCBzaG91bGQgYmUgZW5jb2RlZA
s = base64.URLEncoding:encode_to_string("this is a <tag> and should be encoded")
print(s)
dGhpcyBpcyBhIDx0YWc-IGFuZCBzaG91bGQgYmUgZW5jb2RlZA==
Decoding
local base64 = require("base64")
s, err = base64.RawStdEncoding:decode_string("Zm9vAWJhcg")
assert(not err, err)
print(s)
foobar
s, err = base64.StdEncoding:decode_string("Zm9vAWJhcg==")
assert(not err, err)
print(s)
foobar
s, err = base64.RawURLEncoding:decode_string("dGhpcyBpcyBhIDx0YWc-IGFuZCBzaG91bGQgYmUgZW5jb2RlZA")
assert(not err, err)
print(s)
this is a <tag> and should be encoded
s, err = base64.URLEncoding:decode_string("dGhpcyBpcyBhIDx0YWc-IGFuZCBzaG91bGQgYmUgZW5jb2RlZA==")
assert(not err, err)
print(s)
this is a <tag> and should be encoded
