Syntax

string teaEncode ( string data, string key )

Required Arguments

  • data: The block of data you want to encrypt
  • key: The key that should be used for encryption (Only first 16 characters are used)

Returns

Client

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

[lua]
function encrypt(cmd, theString, key)
    if theString then
        if not key then
            key = string.rep(string.char(math.random(string.byte("a"), string.byte("Z"))), 10) -- Generate a random key of 10 characters
        end
        local encodedString = teaEncode(theString, key) -- Encode the string with the key
        outputChatBox("The encoded string is: " .. encodedString .. " (used key: " .. key .. ")")
    else
        outputChatBox("Syntax: /" .. cmd .. " (string) [key].")
