# Encoding
|
|
|
|
**encoding** is a simple wrapper around [iconv-lite](https://github.com/ashtuchkin/iconv-lite/) to convert strings from one encoding to another.

Initially _encoding_ was a wrapper around _node-iconv_ (main) and _iconv-lite_ (fallback) and was used as the encoding layer for Nodemailer/mailparser. Somehow it also ended up as a dependency for a bunch of other project, none of these actually using _node-iconv_. The loading mechanics caused issues for front-end projects and Nodemailer/malparser had moved on, so _node-iconv_ was removed.

## Install
|
|
|
|
Install through npm
|
|
|
|
npm install encoding
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Require the module
|
|
|
|
var encoding = require("encoding");
|
|
|
|
Convert with encoding.convert()
|
|
|
|
var resultBuffer = encoding.convert(text, toCharset, fromCharset);
|
|
|
|
Where
|
|
|
|
- **text** is either a Buffer or a String to be converted
|
|
- **toCharset** is the characterset to convert the string
|
|
- **fromCharset** (_optional_, defaults to UTF-8) is the source charset
|
|
|
|
Output of the conversion is always a Buffer object.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
|
|
var result = encoding.convert("ÕÄÖÜ", "Latin_1");
|
|
console.log(result); //<Buffer d5 c4 d6 dc>
