+# Constant-Time Encoding
+
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/paragonie/constant_time_encoding.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/paragonie/constant_time_encoding)

+[![Latest Unstable Version](https://poser.pugx.org/paragonie/constant_time_encoding/v/unstable)](https://packagist.org/packages/paragonie/constant_time_encoding)

+
+Based on the [constant-time base64 implementation made by Steve "Sc00bz" Thomas](https://github.com/Sc00bz/ConstTimeEncoding),
+this library aims to offer character encoding functions that do not leak
+information about what you are encoding/decoding via processor cache
+misses. Further reading on [cache-timing attacks](http://blog.ircmaxell.com/2014/11/its-all-about-time.html).
+
+Our fork offers the following enchancements:
+
+* `mbstring.func_overload` resistance
+* Unit tests
+* Composer- and Packagist-ready
+* Base16 encoding
+* Base32 encoding
+* Uses `pack()` and `unpack()` instead of `chr()` and `ord()`
+
+## PHP Version Requirements
+
+Version 2 of this library should work on **PHP 7** or newer. For PHP 5
+support, see [the v1.x branch](https://github.com/paragonie/constant_time_encoding/tree/v1.x).
+
+If you are adding this as a dependency to a project intended to work on both PHP 5 and PHP 7, please set the required version to `^1|^2` instead of just `^1` or `^2`.
+
+## How to Install
+
+```sh
+composer require paragonie/constant_time_encoding
+```
+
+## How to Use
+
+```php
+use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Encoding;
+
+// possibly (if applicable):
+// require 'vendor/autoload.php';
+
+$data = random_bytes(32);
+echo Encoding::base64Encode($data), "\n";
+echo Encoding::base32EncodeUpper($data), "\n";
+echo Encoding::base32Encode($data), "\n";
+echo Encoding::hexEncode($data), "\n";
+echo Encoding::hexEncodeUpper($data), "\n";
+```
+
+Example output:
+
+```

+D558A53E4795AA2AE53E27E4E6C71BDCC4D36CC4F6725A7E664CAFF551456AC1
+```
+
+If you only need a particular variant, you can just reference the
+required class like so:
+
+```php
+use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Base64;
+use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Base32;
+
+$data = random_bytes(32);
+echo Base64::encode($data), "\n";
+echo Base32::encode($data), "\n";
+```
+
+Example output:
+
+```
