Support will be provided for security and bug fixes. + +Version 1 will therefore be supported until the 11th September 2019. + +## Background + +I wanted a replacement for Base64 encoded strings and the [Base58 encoding used by Bitcoin](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Base58Check_encoding) looked ideal. I looked around for an existing PHP library which would directly convert a string into Base58 but I couldn't find one, or at least one that worked correctly and was also well tested. + +So I decided to create a library with the following goals: + +- Encode/Decode PHP Strings +- Simple and easy to use +- Fully Tested +- Available via Composer + +## Requirements + +This library has the following requirements: + +- PHP => 5.3 +- BC Math Extension + +## Installation + +I recommend you install this library via Composer. + +```json +{ + "require": { + "stephenhill/base58": "~1.0" + } +} +``` + +## Basic Usage + +```php +require_once('vendor/autoload.php'); + +$base58 = new StephenHill\Base58(); + +$base58->encode('Hello World'); +$base58->decode('JxF12TrwUP45BMd'); +``` + +## Advanced Usage + +By default this library chooses the encoding service provider to use, either GMPService or BCMathService (in that order). +If you want to specify one of the included services or your own, you can inject it into the constructor. + +```php +require_once('vendor/autoload.php'); + +$gmp = new StephenHill\GMPService(); +$base58 = new StephenHill\Base58(null, $gmp); + +$base58->encode('Hello World'); +$base58->decode('JxF12TrwUP45BMd'); +``` + +Also by default, this library uses Bitcoin's Base58 alphabet. If you want to use another variant, you can do this in the constructor. + +```php +require_once('vendor/autoload.php'); + +// Flickr's Base58 Alphabet +$base58 = new StephenHill\Base58('123456789abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ'); + +$base58->encode('Hello World'); +$base58->decode('iXf12sRWto45bmC'); +``` + +## Testing + +This library is tested using PHPUnit. + +```bash +$ bin/phpunit +``` + +## Benchmarking + +You can benchmark this library using [Athletic](https://github.com/polyfractal/athletic). +The benchmarking suite also benchmarks PHP's built-in Base64 and Base16 encoding for comparison. + +```bash +$ bin/athletic -p benchmarks +``` + +Example output. + +``` +StephenHill\Benchmarks\Base16Event + Method Name Iterations Average Time Ops/second + ------------ ------------ -------------- ------------- + encodeBase16: [10,000 ] [0.0000010839939] [922,514.40637] + decodeBase16: [10,000 ] [0.0000011516809] [868,296.03561] + + +StephenHill\Benchmarks\Base58BCMathEvent + Method Name Iterations Average Time Ops/second + ------------ ------------ -------------- ------------- + encodeBase58: [10,000 ] [0.0001500048161] [6,666.45263] + decodeBase58: [10,000 ] [0.0001741812706] [5,741.14540] + + +StephenHill\Benchmarks\Base58GMPEvent + Method Name Iterations Average Time Ops/second + ------------ ------------ -------------- ------------- + encodeBase58: [10,000 ] [0.0001168665648] [8,556.76730] + decodeBase58: [10,000 ] [0.0001385705233] [7,216.54199] + + +StephenHill\Benchmarks\Base64Event + Method Name Iterations Average Time Ops/second + ------------ ------------ -------------- ------------- + encodeBase64: [10,000 ] [0.0000009050369] [1,104,927.29189] + decodeBase64: [10,000 ] [0.0000009787321] [1,021,730.04312] +``` + +## Contributing + +I welcome everyone to contribute to this library.
