(Node.js) UU Encoding and Decoding

Demonstrates how to UU encode and decode.

Install Chilkat for Node.js and Electron using npm at Chilkat npm packages for Node.js Chilkat npm packages for Electron on Windows, Linux, MacOS

function chilkatExample() {

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    var crypt = new chilkat.Crypt2();

    var s1;
    var s2;
    var s3;

    s1 = "This string is to be UU encoded";

    crypt.UuMode = "666";
    crypt.UuFilename = "something.txt";

    // UU encode:
    s2 = crypt.EncodeString(s1,"ansi","uu");

    // Note: Call crypt.Encode instead of crypt.EncodeString
    // to UU encode binary bytes (i.e. non-text binary data).

    console.log(s2);

    // UU decode:
    var crypt2 = new chilkat.Crypt2();
    s3 = crypt2.DecodeString(s2,"ansi","uu");

    // Note: Likewise, call crypt.Decode to decode non-text binary data.

    console.log(s3);

    // Show the file permissions mode and filename found
    // in the UU encoded data:
    console.log("UuMode = " + crypt2.UuMode);
    console.log("UuFilename = " + crypt2.UuFilename);
