encode-decode
=============

[](#encode-decode)

This small library provides a simple and consistent way to encode and decode data in php. Either due to a non-existent native solution or to wrap the native calls to provide a simpler interface and error handling.

Currently there are only 2 encoders:

- Base64Url
- Json

### Base64Url

[](#base64url)

Encode example

```
    try {
        $encoder = new Base64Url();
        $encoded = $encoder->encode("Encode/Decode library for PHP");
    } catch (EncodingException $e) {
        // handle exception
    }
    // encoded === "RW5jb2RlL0RlY29kZSBsaWJyYXJ5IGZvciBQSFA"

```

Decode example

```
    try {
        $encoder = new Base64Url();
        $decoded = $encoder->decode("RW5jb2RlL0RlY29kZSBsaWJyYXJ5IGZvciBQSFA");
    } catch (DecodingException $e) {
        // handle exception
    }
    // decoded === "Encode/Decode library for PHP"

```

### Json

[](#json)

Encode example

```
    try {
        $encoder = new Json();
        $encoded = $encoder->encode(["encode" => "decode"]);
    } catch (EncodingException $e) {}

```

Decode example

```
    try {
        $encoder = new Json();
        $decoded = $encoder->decode('{"encode":"decode"}');
    } catch (DecodingException $e) {}

```

By default decode will return an array, if you want to decode to an object then set assoc to false:

```
    $encoder->setAssoc(false);

```
