The Grails Framework 3.2.3

(Quick Reference) ## codecs ### Purpose Provides the facility to register encoders and decoders of textual data as methods on any object ### Examples
    class HTMLCodec {
        static encode = { theTarget ->
            HtmlUtils.htmlEscape(theTarget.toString())
        }
        static decode = { theTarget ->
            HtmlUtils.htmlUnescape(theTarget.toString())
        }
    }
    assert "&lt;p&gt;Hello World!&lt;/p&gt;" == "<p>Hello World!</p>".encodeAsHTML()
    assert "<p>Hello World!</p>" == "&lt;p&gt;Hello World!&lt;/p&gt;".decodeHTML()
### Description This plugin searches for classes with names that end in the convention `Codec` and dynamically registers `encodeAs[Codec]` and `decode[Codec]` methods on `java.lang.Object` so that any data can be encoded and decoded. For more information refer to the section of Encoding and Decoding Objects in the user guide. Provided Codecs: `HTMLCodec` - encodes/decodes HTML mark-up `URLCodec` - encodes/decodes URLs `JavascriptCodec` - encodes (escapes) JavaScript `Base64Codec` - encodes/decodes Base64 data `HexCodec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers into a hex string, and decodes hex strings into byte array `MD5Codec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an MD5 digest as a hex string `MD5BytesCodec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an MD5 digest as a byte array `SHA1Codec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an SHA1 digest as a hex string `SHA1BytesCodec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an SHA1 digest as a byte array `SHA256Codec` - encodes a byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an SHA256 digest as a hex string `SHA256BytesCodec` - encodes byte array or list of integers, or the characters of a string (using default system encoding) into an SHA256 digest as a byte array | Quick Reference (hide)
