Built-in tools

emissary-cli includes built-in tools inspired by i2pd-tools, available as subcommands of the router.

Base64 encoding and decoding

base64-encode and base64-decode commands allow encoding and decoding strings and files using the I2P Base64 alphabet.

Examples

Base64-encode a binary key file, reading from stdin and writing to key.b64 file:

emissary-cli base64-encode < key.dat > key.b64

Base64-decode a string and write the output to stdout:

emissary-cli base64-decode -s aGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==

Base64-decode a file and write the output to a file:

emissary-cli base64-decode -f key.b64 -o key.dat
