as-data-uri-cli

as-data-uri-cli

Command line tool to encode data into a data URI.

Similar to data-uri-to-file-cli, but

• only uses stdio instead of read and writing files
• supports url-encoded data URIs (e.g. data:text/plain,hello%20world)
• supports an optional charset

Usage

Usage:
    as-data-uri [--url-encoded] [--mime mime-type] [--charset utf8]

Options:
    --url-encoded  -u  Url-encode instead of base64.
    --mime         -m  Specify a mime type. Default: text/plain.
    --charset      -c  Specify an optional charset (for text only).

Examples:
    echo -n 'hello world' | as-data-uri --mime text/plain --url-encoded
    cat picture.png | as-data-uri --mime image/png | pbcopy

If you have installed it:

echo -n 'Hello World!' | as-data-uri -m text/plain -u
# data:text/plain,hello%20world
cat foo.png | as-data-uri -m image/png
# data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0K…CYII=
