Example Usage
-------------

[](#example-usage)

#### Creating a key from a number:

[](#creating-a-key-from-a-number)

You can only encode an integer greater than or equal to zero.

```
use Key62\Key62;

$key62 = new Key62();
$key = $key62->encode(100000);
```

#### Set your own character set to create keys and the minimum number of characters in the key:

[](#set-your-own-character-set-to-create-keys-and-the-minimum-number-of-characters-in-the-key)

If you change the minimum length of the key when encoding, then do not forget to set it with the reverse decryption of the key.

```
use Key62\Key62;

$characters = 'wWpJbH8nIDed1Evq5OcToF2ZuXsayz7RrtP490ixSKC3GM6gYkNVhBUQmLlfAj';
$length = 4;

$key62 = new Key62($characters, $length);
$key = $key62->encode(100000);
```

#### Getting the number from the key:

[](#getting-the-number-from-the-key)

You can decode the key if all of its characters are in the class set.

```
use Key62\Key62;

$key62 = new Key62();
$number = $key62->decode('Gh1a');
```
