Readme
Smallest/simplest possible means of using atob with both Node and browserify.
In the browser, decoding base64 strings is done using:
var decoded = atob(encoded)
However in Node, it's done like so:
var decoded = new Buffer(encoded, 'base64').toString('utf8')
You can easily check if Buffer
exists and switch between the approaches
accordingly, but using Buffer
anywhere in your browser source will pull
in browserify's Buffer
shim which is pretty hefty. This package uses
the main
and browser
fields in its package.json
to perform this
check at build time and avoid pulling Buffer
in unnecessarily.
decoded = atob(encoded)
Returns the decoded value of a base64-encoded string.
