Method: Base64.urlsafe_decode64

Defined in:
lib/base64.rb

.urlsafe_decode64(str) ⇒ Object

Returns the Base64-decoded version of str. This method complies with “Base 64 Encoding with URL and Filename Safe Alphabet” in RFC 4648. The alphabet uses ‘-’ instead of ‘+’ and ‘_’ instead of ‘/’.

The padding character is optional. This method accepts both correctly-padded and unpadded input. Note that it still rejects incorrectly-padded input.

  # "the excess pad characters MAY also be ignored", so it is inferred that
  # unpadded input is also acceptable.
