# Encoding
**encoding** is a simple wrapper around [iconv-lite](https://github.com/ashtuchkin/iconv-lite/) to convert strings from one encoding to another.
[](http://travis-ci.org/andris9/Nodemailer)
[](http://badge.fury.io/js/encoding)
Initially _encoding_ was a wrapper around _node-iconv_ (main) and _iconv-lite_ (fallback) and was used as the encoding layer for Nodemailer/mailparser. Somehow it also ended up as a dependency for a bunch of other project, none of these actually using _node-iconv_. The loading mechanics caused issues for front-end projects and Nodemailer/malparser had moved on, so _node-iconv_ was removed.
## Install
Install through npm
npm install encoding
## Usage
Require the module
var encoding = require("encoding");
Convert with encoding.convert()
var resultBuffer = encoding.convert(text, toCharset, fromCharset);
Where
- **text** is either a Buffer or a String to be converted
- **toCharset** is the characterset to convert the string
- **fromCharset** (_optional_, defaults to UTF-8) is the source charset
Output of the conversion is always a Buffer object.
Example
var result = encoding.convert("ÕÄÖÜ", "Latin_1");
console.log(result); //<Buffer d5 c4 d6 dc>
