node-red-node-base64
====================

A <a href="http://nodered.org" target="_new">Node-RED</a> node to encode and decode base64 format messages.


Install
-------

Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically `~/.node-red`

    npm i node-red-node-base64

Usage
-----

A function that converts the `msg.payload` to and from base64 format.

If the input is a binary buffer it converts it to a Base64 encoded string.

If the input is a Base64 string it converts it back to a binary buffer.
