Overview
A binary string is a sequence of bytes encoded with the base 64 character set:
['A'..'Z' 'a'..'z' '0'..'9' '+' '/']
Each binary string has the following string format:
binary$: "'>" (BASE64 | SPACE | EOL)* "<'"
The source of this format is Bali Document Notation™ (Bali) defined here.
A Quick Example
To whet your appetite, here is some short example code that demonstrates the use of binary strings.
package main
import (
fmt "fmt"
fra "github.com/craterdog/go-component-framework/v7"
)
func main() {
// Create some new binary strings using the module level constructor shortcuts.
var binary = fra.BinaryFromString(
`'>
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789+/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmn
opqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/
<'
`,
)
fmt.Println(binary)
binary = fra.Binary(
[]byte{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5},
)
fmt.Println(binary)
fmt.Println()
// Iterate through the bytes for the binary string.
var iterator = binary.GetIterator()
for iterator.HasNext() {
var next = iterator.GetNext()
fmt.Println(next)
}
}
