1# Encoding2 3**encoding** is a simple wrapper around [iconv-lite](https://github.com/ashtuchkin/iconv-lite/) to convert strings from one encoding to another.4 5[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/andris9/encoding.svg)](http://travis-ci.org/andris9/Nodemailer)6[![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/encoding.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/encoding)7 8Initially _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.9 10## Install11 12Install through npm13 14    npm install encoding15 16## Usage17 18Require the module19 20    var encoding = require("encoding");21 22Convert with encoding.convert()23 24    var resultBuffer = encoding.convert(text, toCharset, fromCharset);25 26Where27 28-   **text** is either a Buffer or a String to be converted29-   **toCharset** is the characterset to convert the string30-   **fromCharset** (_optional_, defaults to UTF-8) is the source charset31 32Output of the conversion is always a Buffer object.33 34Example35 36    var result = encoding.convert("ÕÄÖÜ", "Latin_1");37    console.log(result); //<Buffer d5 c4 d6 dc>38 39## License40 41**MIT**42
