This functions performs the Tiny Encryption Algorithm on the given string and returns the base64 representation of the encrypted string.

Use encodeString instead, because teaEncode inflates the file size by as high as ~77% (or by ~33% if the input isn't binary converted to base64 string).

Syntax

 teaEncode ( )

Code Examples

server

This example creates a /teaencrypt command, which performs the TEA on a given string with the specified key, if any.

function encryptString( cmd, theString, theKey )
    if ( theString ) then
        if ( not theKey ) then
            theKey = string.rep( string.char( math.random( string.byte( "a" ), string.byte( "Z" ) ) ), 10 ) -- Generate a random key of 10 characters if no key was passed in as an argument
        end
        local encodedString = teaEncode( theString, theKey ) -- Encode the string with the key
        outputChatBox( "The encoded string is: " .. tostring( encodedString ) .. " (used key: " .. theKey .. ")" )
    else
        outputChatBox( "Syntax: /" .. cmd .. " [string] <[key]>" )
    end
end
addCommandHandler( "teaencrypt", encryptString )
