From Base32

Category: Encoding

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: string → byteArray

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32

What it does

Base32 is a notation for encoding arbitrary byte data using a restricted set of symbols that can be conveniently used by humans and processed by computers. It uses a smaller set of characters than Base64, usually the uppercase alphabet and the numbers 2 to 7.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Index	Name	UI type	PyChef default	Accepted values / format
`0`	Alphabet	`editableOption`	`'A-Z2-7='`	`'A-Z2-7='`, `'0-9A-V='`
`1`	Remove non-alphabet chars	`boolean`	`True`	`True` or `False`

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = ['A-Z2-7=', True]
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'From Base32', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = ['A-Z2-7=', True]
transform = Pipeline().then('From Base32', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.from_base32. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.from_base32 import run

result = run("example", tuple(['A-Z2-7=', True]))

pychef.operations.by_operation.from_base32.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

value (str | bytes)
args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
