Binary to Base64 Conversion

I have to deal with a binary value of base64 ID in a groovy script. So,
first I need to covert binary data to base64 format and then
decodeBase64().

Any clues/thoughts ? Thanks!!

What does your vendor mean by "binary on top of base64"?  I suspect they are sending a byte[] that you are reading into a String object rather than treating it as a byte array.

If that is Java code then the "Groovy script" is exactly the same.  However, I'm starting to suspect an XY problem here... what are you really trying to accomplish?

Cheers,

the first problem is encoding. its coming in an encoded format that
decodeBase64 cannot understand.

Whats the equivalent of the following in groovy script?

env.put("java.naming.ldap.attributes.binary","APPUID");

Thanks Guys

Re: Binary to Base64 Conversion

Posted by Jeff Cave <je...@gmail.com>.
I don't think this is not a Groovy problem, so much as a general
programming problem.

The first thing I would point out is that in your example APPUID is not
base64encoded, there is nothing to base64decode.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64


I notice that in your example, APPUID is 16 characters. Is APPUID a UUID
(basically a 16-byte integer)?

If so,

   - You may be looking to create an object of type `java.util.UUID`.
   - You could also possibly use `java.math.BigInteger`
   - Converting the binary array to a String in hex notation may also be
   meaningful.

It all depends on what your final intention is.

getBytes() disrupts the base64 format:

<groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method:
[B.decodeBase64() is applicable for argument types: () values: []
Possible solutions: encodeBase64(), encodeBase64(boolean)>
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerInvocationException:
groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method:
[B.decodeBase64() is applicable for argument types: () values: []
Possible solutions: encodeBase64(), encodeBase64(boolean)

Re: Binary to Base64 Conversion

Posted by "Nelson, Erick" <Er...@hdsupply.com>.
can appuid be read as bytes ( byte[] ) ??
if So , then try then decodeBase64(byte[]) method maybe?

Erick,

Thanks for the response.

The binary value from the webservice is

APPUID=.�&Y���A�Tzg�<�^,

The vendor tells me its binary on top of base64. If I try decodeBase64() on this, it throws: bad character in base64 value
I guess I need to convert it first from binary to base64 format, and then decodeBase64().


I don't find binary to base64 decoding in the link.

I have to deal with a binary value of base64 ID in a groovy script. So, first I need to covert binary data to base64 format and then decodeBase64().

Any clues/thoughts ? Thanks!!

RE: Binary to Base64 Conversion

You can use built-in encodeBase64 method in Groovy:

assert "AQID" == ([1,2,3] as byte[]).encodeBase64() as String

And you saw, decodeBase64 is the opposite. Does that do what you want?
