A li’l class for data URI manipulation in Python

Project description

# DataURI.py

Data URI manipulation made easy.

This isn’t very robust, and will reject a number of valid data URIs. However, it meets the most useful case: a mimetype, a charset, and the base64 flag.

### Installation

`shell $ pip install python-datauri `

### Parsing

`python >>> from datauri import DataURI >>> uri = DataURI('data:text/plain;charset=utf-8;base64,VGhlIHF1aWNrIGJyb3duIGZveCBqdW1wZWQgb3ZlciB0aGUgbGF6eSBkb2cu') >>> uri.mimetype 'text/plain' >>> uri.charset 'utf-8' >>> uri.is_base64 True >>> uri.data 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.' `

Note that DataURI.data won’t decode the data bytestring into a unicode string based on the charset.

### Creating from a string

`python >>> from datauri import DataURI >>> made = DataURI.make('text/plain', charset='us-ascii', base64=True, data='This is a message.') >>> made DataURI('data:text/plain;charset=us-ascii;base64,VGhpcyBpcyBhIG1lc3NhZ2Uu') >>> made.data 'This is a message.' `

### Creating from a file

This is really just a convenience method.

`python >>> from datauri import DataURI >>> png_uri = DataURI.from_file('somefile.png') >>> png_uri.mimetype 'image/png' >>> png_uri.data '\x89PNG\r\n...' `
