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:

```

```
