Shortening.js
A bijective base encoder for creating short URLs and identifiers.
Usage
shortening.New()
// Input: {string} charSet: [length = 32|64]
// Output: {coder} Encoder/Decoder object or throw
const base32hex = shortening.New("0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUV")
base32hex.Encode(1024); // "V0"
base32hex.Decode("SHORT") // 31025053
coder.Encode()
// Input: {number} uint32[0, 4294967295]
// Output: {string|undefined} undefined for out of range input
shortening.Std32.Encode(1024); // "7A"
shortening.Std64.Encode(1024); // "PA"
shortening.Std64.Encode(-1); // undefined
shortening.Std64.Encode(4294967296); // undefined
coder.Decode()
// Input: {string}
// Output: {number} uint32[0, 4294967295] | negative sentinel
shortening.Std32.Decode("SHORT"); // 20201043
shortening.Std64.Decode("SHORT"); // 320926867
shortening.Std64.Decode(""); // -1
