kumo.encode.charset_encode
Since: Dev Builds Only
The functionality described in this section requires a dev build of KumoMTA. You can obtain a dev build by following the instructions in the Installation section.
Given an the input string UTF8_INPUT, which must be a UTF8 string, encodes it
into the named CHARSET, which must be one of the charsets supported by the
converter (the most common latin, japanese, chinese, korean and cyrillic code
pages are supported).
If OPT_IGNORE_ERRORS is set to false, any errors representing the input
string as the requested charset will cause a lua error to be propagated.
Setting OPT_IGNORE_ERRORS to true, or omitting OPT_IGNORE_ERRORS, will
cause the result to be potentially a partial encoding of the input.
The return value will be a byte string which, barring any encoding errors, will be the representation of the input string in the requested charset.
