base122-go

Encoder and decoder implementation of base122 encoding scheme in Go programing language.

Base122 is a space efficient binary-to-text encoding scheme, which encodes the binary into UTF-8 strings. It use less space to encode your binary data compared to base64 (12.5% higher efficiency according to this wiki page).

This repo is inspired by patrickfav/base122-java and kevinAlbs/Base122, and aims to provide easy-to-use interface for Gophers to use base122 to improve your encoding efficiency.

Intro

Requirement

Go >= 1.18

Installation

go get github.com/vence722/base122-go

Usage

Simple encode & decode example:

import "github.com/vence722/base122-go"

...

// Encode
s := "hello base122!!!"
encText, err := base122.EncodeToString([]byte(s))
if err != nil {
    // error handling
}
fmt.Println(encText) // 4�-Fc<@b0׬S	Hd!�H 

...

// Decode
txt, err := base122.DecodeFromString(encText)
if err != nil {
    // error handling
}
fmt.Println(txt == s)  // true
