35 Codec
| (require denxi/codec) | package: denxi |
The denxi/codec module encodes and decodes byte strings. Note that ports are not used, so all data sits entirely in memory.
35.1 High-Level Interface
procedure
encoding : denxi-encoding/c variant : (or/c bytes? string?)
Encodes a byte string or UTF-8 encoded string according to
encoding. The return value type matches the type of
variant.
procedure
encoding : denxi-encoding/c encoded : (or/c bytes? string?)
Decodes a byte string or UTF-8 encoded string according to
encoding. The return value type matches the type of
encoded.
value
A list of supported encodings of byte strings.
Bound to
| '(base64 base32 hex colon-separated-hex) |
value
denxi-encoding/c : flat-contract? = (apply or/c denxi-encodings)
A contract that accepts a value in denxi-encodings.
procedure
(encoded-file-name variant) → path-string?
variant : (or/c bytes? string?)
Returns up to the first 32 characters of (coerce-string (encode 'base32 variant)), which is suitable for use as a file name
across platforms.
35.2 UTF-8 Conversions
procedure
(coerce-string v) → string?
v : (or/c string? bytes?)
Equivalent to
(if (string? v) v (bytes->string/utf-8 v))
procedure
(coerce-bytes v) → bytes?
v : (or/c string? bytes?)
Equivalent to
(if (bytes? v) v (string->bytes/utf-8 v))
35.3 Abbreviated Decoding Procedures
value
= (-> (or/c non-empty-string? bytes?) bytes?)
An abbreviated decoding procedure (or ADP) helps a
user represent a byte string with a more convenient notation.
e.g.
(integrity 'sha384 (base64 "z/2YR1yTDC0YBvgQFpGUzXGtqZdPx+E//C2tyYNDENnLf7NGexuuDc/3yOhoGqBn"))
Decodes a hex-encoded string to bytes. The process is case-insensitive.
encoded may separate each pair of hex digits with ":".
This implies (equal? (hex "deadbeef") (hex "de:ad:be:ef")).
Decodes a Base64-encoded string to bytes.
Decodes a Base32-encoded string to bytes.
