Signature

> decode base64 {flags} ...rest

Flags

• --character-set, -c {string}: specify the character rules for encoding the input. Valid values are 'standard', 'standard-no-padding', 'url-safe', 'url-safe-no-padding','binhex', 'bcrypt', 'crypt', 'mutf7'
• --binary, -b: Output a binary value instead of decoding payload as UTF-8

Parameters

• ...rest: For a data structure input, decode data at the given cell paths

Input/output types:

Examples

Base64 decode a value and output as UTF-8 string

>'U29tZSBEYXRh'|decode base64
SomeData

Length:9 (0x9) bytes|printablewhitespaceascii_othernon_ascii

Notes

Will attempt to decode binary payload as an UTF-8 string by default. Use the --binary(-b) argument to force binary output.
