The Push to Ban Ransom Payments Is Gaining Momentum
Ransomware costs victims an estimated $30 billion per year and has gotten so out of control that global support for banning payments is gaining momentum.
libbase64
Advanced tools
Readme
Encode and decode base64 strings.
Install with npm
npm install libbase64
Require in your script
const libbase64 = require('libbase64');
Encode Buffer objects or unicode strings with
libbase64.encode(val) → String
Where
Example
libbase64.encode('jõgeva');
// asO1Z2V2YQ==
To enforce soft line breaks on lines longer than selected amount of characters, use wrap
libbase64.wrap(str[, lineLength]) → String
Where
Example
libbase64.wrap('asO1Z2V2asO1Z2V2asO1Z2V2YQ==', 10);
// asO1Z2V2as\r\n
// O1Z2V2asO1\r\n
// Z2V2YQ==
libbase64
makes it possible to encode and decode streams with libbase64.Encoder
and libbase64.Decoder
constructors.
Create new Encoder Stream with
const encoder = new libbase64.Encoder([options])
Where
false
to turn the soft wrapping off completely)Example
The following example script reads in a file, encodes it to base64 and saves the output to a file.
const libbase64 = require('libbase64');
const fs = require('fs');
const source = fs.createReadStream('source.txt');
const encoded = fs.createReadStream('encoded.txt');
const encoder = new libbase64.Encoder();
source.pipe(encoder).pipe(encoded);
Create new Decoder Stream with
const decoder = new libbase64.Decoder([options])
Where
Example
The following example script reads in a file in base64 encoding, decodes it and saves the output to a file.
const libbase64 = require('libbase64');
const fs = require('fs');
const encoded = fs.createReadStream('encoded.txt');
const dest = fs.createReadStream('dest.txt');
const decoder = new libbase64.Decoder();
encoded.pipe(decoder).pipe(dest);
