Function: encodeBase64Url()

Creates a encoded ASCII string from a BinaryObject or string using Base64Url.

You can use this method to encode data which may otherwise cause communication problems, transmit it, then use the decodeBase64Url method to decode the data again. For example, you can encode control characters.

Call Signature

function encodeBase64Url(chars: string, encoding: TextEncoding): string;

Defined in: encode-base64-url.ts:19
