py-multibase 2.0.0

Installation

$ pip install py-multibase

Sample Usage

>>> # encoding a buffer
>>> from multibase import encode, decode
>>> encode('base58btc', 'hello world')
b'zStV1DL6CwTryKyV'
>>> encode('base64', 'hello world')
b'mGhlbGxvIHdvcmxk'
>>> # decoding a multibase
>>> decode('mGhlbGxvIHdvcmxk')
b'hello world'
>>> decode(b'zStV1DL6CwTryKyV')
b'hello world'
>>> decode(encode('base2', b'hello world'))
b'hello world'

>>> # Using reusable Encoder/Decoder classes
>>> from multibase import Encoder, Decoder
>>> encoder = Encoder('base64')
>>> encoded1 = encoder.encode('data1')
>>> encoded2 = encoder.encode('data2')

>>> decoder = Decoder()
>>> decoded = decoder.decode(encoded1)

>>> # Getting encoding information
>>> from multibase import get_encoding_info, list_encodings, is_encoding_supported
>>> info = get_encoding_info('base64')
>>> print(info.encoding, info.code)
base64 b'm'
>>> all_encodings = list_encodings()
>>> is_encoding_supported('base64')
True

>>> # Decode with encoding return
>>> encoding, data = decode(encoded1, return_encoding=True)
>>> print(f'Encoded with {encoding}: {data}')
