Base32 Crockford Encoder and Decoder
====================================

[](#base32-crockford-encoder-and-decoder)

A [Base32 Crockford](http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html) implementation for PHP.

Example
-------

[](#example)

```
use Dflydev\Base32\Crockford\Crockford;

$encodedValue = Crockford::encode('519571'); // FVCK
$decodedValue = Crockford::decode('FVCK'); // 519571

$encodedValue = Crockford::encodeWithChecksum('519571'); // FVCKH
$decodedValue = Crockford::decodeWithChecksum('FVCKH'); // 519571

```

By default, decoding will be lenient on the input values. This will allow for passing in the following:

```
$decodedValue = Crockford::decode('F-VCk'); // treated as: FVCK
$decodedValue = Crockford::decode('hEl1O'); // treated as: HE110

```

See [the spec](http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html) for the translation rules.

Decoding can be made strict by passing an optional second argument to the decode methods.

```
Crockford::decode('F-VCk', Crockford::NORMALIZE_ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
Crockford::decode('hEl1O', Crockford::NORMALIZE_ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

```
