NAME
Badger::Codec::Base64 - encode/decode data using MIME::Base64
SYNOPSIS
use Badger::Codec::Base64;
my $codec = Badger::Codec::Base64->new();
my $encoded = $codec->encode("Hello World");
my $decoded = $codec->decode($encoded);DESCRIPTION
This module implements a subclass of Badger::Codec which uses the encode_base64 and decode_base64 subroutines provided by the MIME::Base64 module to encode and decode data.
It a very thin wrapper around the MIME::Base64 module and offers no functional advantage over it. It exist only to provide a consistent API with other Badger::Codec modules.
METHODS
encode($data)
Encodes the data referenced by the first argument using encode_base64().
$encoded = Badger::Codec::Base64->encode($data); decode($data)
Decodes the encoded data passed as the first argument using decode_base64().
$decoded = Badger::Codec::Base64->decode($encoded);encoder()
This method returns a reference to the real subroutine that's doing all the encoding work, i.e. the encode_base64() method in MIME::Base64.
decoder()
This method returns a reference to the real subroutine that's doing all the decoding work, i.e. the decode_base64() method in MIME::Base64.
