Little insight would be great please.

Answer 1

To sum up the other two posts, here are two simple functions to encode/decode Base64 strings with Go:

// Dont forget to import "encoding/base64"!

func base64Encode(str string) string {
    return base64.StdEncoding.EncodeToString([]byte(str))
}

func base64Decode(str string) (string, bool) {
    data, err := base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(str)
    if err != nil {
        return "", true
    }
    return string(data), false
}

Try it!
