Anywhere a module is mentioned, use its "non-u" name for consistency. The "import module" vs "import umodule" is something of a FAQ, and this commit intends to help clear that up. As a first approximation MicroPython is Python, and so imports should work the same as Python and use the same name, to a first approximation. The u-version of a module is a detail that can be learned later on, when the user wants to understand more and have finer control over importing. Existing Python code should just work, as much as it is possible to do that within the constraints of embedded systems, and the MicroPython documentation should match the idiomatic way to write Python code. With universal weak links for modules (via MICROPY_MODULE_WEAK_LINKS) users can consistently use "import foo" across all ports (with the exception of the minimal ports). And the ability to override/extend via "foo.py" continues to work well. Signed-off-by: Jim Mussared <jim.mussared@gmail.com>

:mod:`binascii` -- binary/ASCII conversions
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: binascii
|
|
:synopsis: binary/ASCII conversions
|
|
|
|
|see_cpython_module| :mod:`python:binascii`.
|
|
|
|
This module implements conversions between binary data and various
|
|
encodings of it in ASCII form (in both directions).
|
|
|
|
Functions
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
.. function:: hexlify(data, [sep])
|
|
|
|
Convert the bytes in the *data* object to a hexadecimal representation.
|
|
Returns a bytes object.
|
|
|
|
If the additional argument *sep* is supplied it is used as a separator
|
|
between hexadecimal values.
|
|
|
|
.. function:: unhexlify(data)
|
|
|
|
Convert hexadecimal data to binary representation. Returns bytes string.
|
|
(i.e. inverse of hexlify)
|
|
|
|
.. function:: a2b_base64(data)
|
|
|
|
Decode base64-encoded data, ignoring invalid characters in the input.
|
|
Conforms to `RFC 2045 s.6.8 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045#section-6.8>`_.
|
|
Returns a bytes object.
|
|
|
|
.. function:: b2a_base64(data)
|
|
|
|
Encode binary data in base64 format, as in `RFC 3548
|
|
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3548.html>`_. Returns the encoded data
|
|
followed by a newline character, as a bytes object.
