Base64 Recipe Returning ASCII integer value(s)

[weslambert]

Is there any way to return the output of a base64 op as ASCII text vs integer values?

For example, if I do the following:

curl -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://192.168.1.203:3000/bake -d '{"input":"dGVzdA==", "recipe":{"op":"From Base64"}}'

I get the following as the response:

[116,101,115,116]

How would I modify the request to receive test as the response?

You're getting this because the outputType of FromBase64 is byteArray - see here.

There's a card in the project for this repo for work to optionally define the return type you get from a request, which would solve your problem: card link here. Work has not been started on this yet - feel free to contribute if you have a pressing requirement for it!

@d98762625 ,

That certainly makes sense, and thank you for the quick response. I will take a look at the referenced card and see what I can come up with.

Thanks again!

No problem. Closing for now.
