Data Conversion
The following functions perform conversion to/from different types of data encoding.
%base64.encode( … )
Encode a string using Base64.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "Caipirinha"
&reply.Reply-Message := "The base64 of %{control.Tmp-String-0} is %base64.encode(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
Output
The base64 of foo is Q2FpcGlyaW5oYQ==
%base64.decode( … )
Decode a string previously encoded using Base64.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "Q2FpcGlyaW5oYQ=="
&reply.Reply-Message := "The base64.decode of %{control.Tmp-String-0} is %base64.decode(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
Output
The base64.decode of Q2FpcGlyaW5oYQ== is Caipirinha
%bin( … )
Convert string to binary.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "10"
&reply.Reply-Message := "The %{control.Tmp-String-0} in binary is %bin(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
Output
The 10 in binary is \020
%hex( … )
Convert to hex.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "12345"
&reply.Reply-Message := "The value of %{control.Tmp-String-0} in hex is %hex(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
Output
The value of 12345 in hex is 3132333435
%urlquote( … )
Quote URL special characters.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "http://example.org/"
&reply += {
&Reply-Message = "The urlquote of %{control.Tmp-String-0} is %urlquote(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
}
Output
The urlquote of http://example.org/ is http%3A%2F%2Fexample.org%2F
%urlunquote( … )
Unquote URL special characters.
Example
&control.Tmp-String-0 := "http%%3A%%2F%%2Fexample.org%%2F" # Attention for the double %.
&reply += {
&Reply-Message = "The urlunquote of %{control.Tmp-String-0} is %urlunquote(%{control.Tmp-String-0})"
}
Output
The urlunquote of http%3A%2F%2Fexample.org%2F is http://example.org/
