Serhiy Storchaka e5ea1abf91 Issue #27036: Fixed formatting references to "bytes-like object" in plural. 2016-05-18 13:54:54 +03:00
Martin Panter ee3074e1f4 Issue #22088: Clarify base-64 alphabets and which characters are discarded
* There are only two base-64 alphabets defined by the RFCs, not three
* Due to the internal translation, plus (+) and slash (/) are never discarded
* standard_ and urlsafe_b64decode() discard characters as well

Also update the doc strings to clarify data types, based on revision
92760d2edc9e, correct the exception raised by b16decode(), and correct the
parameter name for the base-85 functions.

R David Murray a198645fa0 #1753718: clarify RFC compliance and bytes/string argument types.
Patch includes contributions by Isobel Hooper, incorporating suggestions from
Paul Winkler.  Reviewed by Martin Panter.

In addition to accepting the corrections for the RFC compliance wording, I
went through and corrected all the argument and return types, and made the
pattern of how the arguments and return types are documented consistent.
So, this patch also addresses #20782, though I had forgotten about that issue
and its patch.

Antoine Pitrou 6dd0d461a4 Issue #17618: Add Base85 and Ascii85 encoding/decoding to the base64 module. 2013-11-17 23:52:25 +01:00
Nick Coghlan fdf239a855 Close #17839: support bytes-like objects in base64 module
This mostly affected the encodebytes and decodebytes function
(which are used by base64_codec)

Also added a test to ensure all bytes-bytes codecs can handle
memoryview input and tests for handling of multidimensional
and non-bytes format input in the modern base64 API.

Serhiy Storchaka ea2b490f3d Issue #18011: base64.b32decode() now raises a binascii.Error if there are

R. David Murray 6495136e40 #1466065: add validate option to base64.b64decode
Patch by Neil Tallim.  This provides a mechanism for module
users to achieve RFC 3548 compliance in the cases where ignoring
non-base64-alphabet input characters is *not* mandated by the RFC that
references RFC 3548.
