# File64

This library will take a file passed as a string and return a Base64 encoded string.

It is intended primarily for use when preparing files for inclusion in JSON files.

The dependencies are all in the default Java libraries. 

## Functions

### base64

Type: Public<br>
Return: String

### file_to_byte

Type: Private<br>
Return: `byte[]`

This function transforms a binary file to byte[] array. `file_to_byte` is used by `base64` when it needs to operate on a file. Because `java.util.Base64.getEncoder()` requires a byte array to operate on it is necessary to binary files into this type.<br>
This allows it to be turned into a base64 encoded string suitable for use in
JSON.
