Unable to find an appropriate decode scheme

[ashubham]

protobuf.js version: 6.8.3

I updated from protobuf 4.x to 6.8.3. I made changes according to the updated API.
But, there is one error I am not able to get pass by, is to how to properly decode this type of serialized
buffer.

I have tried various combinations of Uint8Array.from, atob etc. But to no success, I always get an error of the form
Error: invalid wire type 6 at offset 3.

Any help would be appreciated.

[dcodeIO]

Errors like these usually happen when the binary data becomes corrupted through a string conversion, like forcing it into UTF8 encoding. There is this wiki entry that might help. If a conversion to a string cannot be avoided, there's this base64 utility (available as protobuf.util.base64) that can convert the original binary data to a safe base64 encoded string first, and decode it back.

[Ishanisarkar]

Is it possible to use base64 utility with typescript definitions when generating static code with pbjs and pbts.
something like:
var encodedmessage = AwesomeMessage.base64.encode(message);
Are there any examples to refer?

[dcodeIO]

There is no direct base64 implementation on top of the messages, but there is this utility exposed as protobuf.util.base64 to work with the underlying data, and possibly build a custom helper function from.

[Ishanisarkar]

okay.
Thank You :)
