MIME Decoding

Category: Text

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

Input / output: byteArray → string

Background: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047

What it does

Enables the decoding of MIME message header extensions for non-ASCII text

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

This operation takes no positional recipe arguments.

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 = b"example"
args = []
result = bake(input_value, ['MIME Decoding'])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = []
transform = Pipeline().then('MIME Decoding')
result = transform(b"example")

Dedicated operation module

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

from pychef.operations.by_operation.mime_decoding import run

result = run(b"example", tuple([]))

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

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

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

Return type:

str | bytes
