The [json] encoder/decoder transforms between strings and /// object structures, such as lists and maps, using the JSON format. /// /// The [json] is the default implementation of [JsonCodec]. /// /// Examples /// ```dart /// var encoded = json.encode([1, 2, { "a": null }]); /// var decoded = json.decode('["foo", { "bar": 499 }]'); /// ``` /// For more information, see also [JsonEncoder] and [JsonDecoder]. /// /// ## UTF-8 /// A [Utf8Codec] encodes strings to UTF-8 code units (bytes) and decodes /// UTF-8 code units to strings. /// /// The [utf8] is the default implementation of [Utf8Codec]. /// /// Example: /// ```dart /// var encoded = utf8.encode('Îñţérñåţîöñåļîžåţîờñ'); /// var decoded = utf8.decode([ /// 195, 142, 195, 177, 197, 163, 195, 169, 114, 195, 177, 195, 165, 197, /// 163, 195, 174, 195, 182, 195, 177, 195, 165, 196, 188, 195, 174, 197, /// 190, 195, 165, 197, 163, 195, 174, 225, 187, 157, 195, 177]); /// ``` /// For more information, see also [Utf8Encoder] and [Utf8Decoder]. /// /// ## ASCII /// An [AsciiCodec] encodes strings as ASCII codes stored as bytes and decodes /// ASCII bytes to strings. Not all characters can be represented as ASCII, so /// not all strings can be successfully converted. /// /// The [ascii] is the default implementation of [AsciiCodec]. /// /// Example: /// ```dart /// var encoded = ascii.encode('This is ASCII!'); /// var decoded = ascii.decode([0x54, 0x68, 0x69, 0x73, 0x20, 0x69, 0x73, /// 0x20, 0x41, 0x53, 0x43, 0x49, 0x49, 0x21]); /// ``` /// For more information, see also [AsciiEncoder] and [AsciiDecoder]. /// /// ## Latin-1 /// A [Latin1Codec] encodes strings to ISO Latin-1 (aka ISO-8859-1) bytes /// and decodes Latin-1 bytes to strings. Not all characters can be represented /// as Latin-1, so not all strings can be successfully converted. /// /// The [latin1] is the default implementation of [Latin1Codec]. /// /// Example: /// ```dart /// var encoded = latin1.encode('blåbærgrød'); /// var decoded = latin1.decode([0x62, 0x6c, 0xe5, 0x62, 0xe6, /// 0x72, 0x67, 0x72, 0xf8, 0x64]); /// ``` /// For more information, see also [Latin1Encoder] and [Latin1Decoder]. /// /// ## Base64 /// A [Base64Codec] encodes bytes using the default base64 alphabet, /// decodes using both the base64 and base64url alphabets, /// does not allow invalid characters and requires padding. /// /// The [base64] is the default implementation of [Base64Codec]. /// /// Example: /// ```dart /// var encoded = base64.encode([0x62, 0x6c, 0xc3, 0xa5, 0x62, 0xc3, 0xa6, /// 0x72, 0x67, 0x72, 0xc3, 0xb8, 0x64]); /// var decoded = base64.decode('YmzDpWLDpnJncsO4ZAo='); /// ``` /// For more information, see also [Base64Encoder] and [Base64Decoder]. /// /// ## Converters /// Converters are often used with streams /// to transform the data that comes through the stream /// as it becomes available. /// The following code uses two converters. /// The first is a UTF-8 decoder, which converts the data from bytes to UTF-8 /// as it is read from a file, /// The second is an instance of [LineSplitter], /// which splits the data on newline boundaries. /// ```dart import:io /// const showLineNumbers = true; /// var lineNumber = 1; /// var stream = File('quotes.txt').openRead(); /// /// stream.transform(utf8.decoder) /// .transform(const LineSplitter()) /// .forEach((line) { /// if (showLineNumbers) { /// stdout.write('${lineNumber++} '); /// } /// stdout.writeln(line); /// }); /// ``` /// See the documentation for the [Codec] and [Converter] classes /// for information about creating your own converters. /// /// ## HTML Escape /// [HtmlEscape] converter escapes characters with special meaning in HTML. /// The converter finds characters that are significant in HTML source and /// replaces them with corresponding HTML entities. /// /// Custom escape modes can be created using the [HtmlEscapeMode.new] /// constructor. /// /// Example: /// ```dart /// const htmlEscapeMode = HtmlEscapeMode( /// name: 'custom', /// escapeLtGt: true, /// escapeQuot: false, /// escapeApos: false, /// escapeSlash: false, /// ); /// /// const HtmlEscape htmlEscape = HtmlEscape(htmlEscapeMode); /// String unescaped = 'Text & subject'; /// String escaped = htmlEscape.convert(unescaped); /// print(escaped); // Text & subject /// /// unescaped = '10 > 1 and 1 < 10'; /// escaped = htmlEscape.convert(unescaped); /// print(escaped); // 10 > 1 and 1 < 10 /// /// unescaped = "Single-quoted: 'text'"; /// escaped = htmlEscape.convert(unescaped); /// print(escaped); // Single-quoted: 'text' /// /// unescaped = 'Double-quoted: "text"'; /// escaped = htmlEscape.convert(unescaped); /// print(escaped); // Double-quoted: "text" /// /// unescaped = 'Path: /system/'; /// escaped = htmlEscape.convert(unescaped); /// print(escaped); // Path: /system/ /// ``` /// {@category Core} library dart.convert; import 'dart:async'; import 'dart:typed_data'; import 'dart:_internal' show CastConverter, checkNotNullable, parseHexByte; part 'ascii.dart'; part 'base64.dart'; part 'byte_conversion.dart'; part 'chunked_conversion.dart'; part 'codec.dart'; part 'converter.dart'; part 'encoding.dart'; part 'html_escape.dart'; part 'json.dart'; part 'latin1.dart'; part 'line_splitter.dart'; part 'string_conversion.dart'; part 'utf.dart';
