EncodeString
From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
This function encodes a string using the specified algorithm. The counterpart of this function is decodeString.
Syntax
string encodeString ( string algorithm, string input, table options )
Required Arguments
- algorithm: The algorithm to use.
- input: The input to encode.
- options: A table with options and other neccessary data for the algorithm, as detailed below.
Options for each algorithm
- tea (Tiny Encryption Algorithm)
- key: A key to encode the input with.
Returns
Returns the encoded string if successful, false otherwise.
Example
Adds an /encode command in which you can provide an algorithm, key and data to encode. Below is the example provided as both server-side and client-side variations.
