Decodes a Base64 string into a byte buffer.
Parameters:
encoded (string)Returns:
bytes — Decoded bytes.encoding.base64Encode(data)
Encodes a string or byte buffer as Base64.
Parameters:
data (string|bytes)Returns:
string — Base64-encoded data.encoding.urlDecode(encoded)
Decodes a percent-encoded string, like JavaScript's decodeURIComponent. Malformed input is returned unchanged.
Parameters:
encoded (string)Returns:
string — Decoded string.encoding.urlEncode(value)

string — URL-encoded string.encoding.utf8Decode(data)
Decodes a UTF-8 byte buffer into a string.
Parameters:
