node-red-node-base64

A Node-RED 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.
