base64_decode — MIME base64 方式によりエンコードされたデータをデコードする
base64 でエンコードされた string
をデコードします。
デコードされたデータを返します。失敗した場合に false を返します。
戻り値はバイナリになることもあります。
例1 base64_decode() の例
<?php
$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==';
echo base64_decode($str);
?>上の例の出力は以下となります。
This is an encoded string
If you want to save data that is derived from a Javascript canvas.toDataURL() function, you have to convert blanks into plusses. If you do not do that, the decoded data is corrupted:<?php $encodedData = str_replace(' ','+',$encodedData); $decocedData = base64_decode($encodedData);?>I had some trouble trying to let base64_decode decode base64-strings longer than ~5k chars.
The base64-decoding function is a homomorphism between modulo 4 and modulo 3-length segmented strings. That motivates a divide and conquer approach: Split the encoded string into substrings counting modulo 4 chars, then decode each substring and concatenate all of them.
Then instead of
<?php $decoded = base64_decode($encoded); ?>
for big $encoded strings, it's saver to use
<?php
$decoded = "";
for ($i=0; $i < ceil(strlen($encoded)/256); $i++)
$decoded = $decoded . base64_decode(substr($encoded,$i*256,256));
?>
where 256 can be replaced by a sufficiently small modulo 4 natural.This function supports "base64url" as described in Section 5 of RFC 4648, "Base 64 Encoding with URL and Filename Safe Alphabet" <?php function base64url_decode($base64url) { $base64 = strtr($base64url, '-_', '+/'); $plainText = base64_decode($base64); return ($plainText); } ?>Base64 for URL parameters/filenames, that adhere to RFC 4648.Defaults to dropping the padding on encode since it's not required for decoding, and keeps the URL free of % encodings.<?phpfunction base64url_encode($data, $pad = null) { $data = str_replace(array('+', '/'), array('-', '_'), base64_encode($data)); if (!$pad) { $data = rtrim($data, '='); } return $data;}function base64url_decode($data) { return base64_decode(str_replace(array('-', '_'), array('+', '/'), $data));}Note, that padding characters are not limited to "=". any character(s) at the end of the string that cannot be decoded will be interpreted as padding. if $strict is set to true, of course padding characters are limited to base64 characters.examples:<?php// $strict = false;$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==';echo base64_decode($str); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw';echo base64_decode($str); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZwA';echo base64_decode($str); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZwA=';echo base64_decode($str); // This is an encoded string// $strict = true;$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==';echo base64_decode($str, true); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw';echo base64_decode($str, true); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZwA';echo base64_decode($str, true); // This is an encoded string$str = 'VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZwA=';echo base64_decode($str, true); // This is an encoded string?>
