Base62

Base62 encoder and decoder based on Base62 for PHP for .NET. This library is useful for converting data into shortened strings good for URL shortening and/or obfuscating auto-incrementing resource ids from being exposed through RESTful APIs.

Compatibility

Written to be netstandard compliant, this library should be able to be used cross-platform. See netstandard details for more information.

Usage

var base62Converter = new Base62Converter();

var encoded = base62Converter.Encode("120");

Console.WriteLine(encoded);

var decoded = base62Converter.Decode(encoded);

Console.WriteLine(decoded);

// output is:
//    "DWjo"
//    "120"

Character sets

By default Base62 uses [0-9A-Za-z] character set but can be alternated to use [0-9a-zA-Z] through the constructor.

new Base62Converter(Base62Converter.CharacterSet.INVERTED);
