Can't encrypt text with Turkish characters?

[teytag]

It does not encrypt a paragraph consisting of Turkish characters (like ş, ç, ü, ğ, ö). How can I solve this problem?

Cryptico can't encrypt many Unicode characters. If you want to encrypt foreign characters, emojis, etc. You should first encodeURI(Turkish text), encrypt the encoded text, decrypt, and decodeURI(encoded plaintext). Example:

let turkishText = "Ölçek";
turkishText = encodeURI(turkishText); // Becomes "%C3%96l%C3%A7ek"
let cipher = cryptico.encrypt(turkishText, publicKeyHere).cipher;
let plaintext = cryptico.decrypt(cipher, privateKeyHere).plaintext;
decodeURI(plaintext); // Becomes Ölçek

This can be used to encrypt any Unicode text. @wwwtyro I think it would be helpful if Cryptico automatically encoded and decoded Unicode text.

The encodeURI() function encodes special characters, except: , / ? : @ & = + $ #
So, not work your solution.

let turkish = "Türkçe karakterleri şifreliyor artık!";
result decrypt decodeURl(turkish) -> T%C3%BCrk%C3%A7e%20karakterleri%20%C5%9Fifreliyor%20art%C4%B1k!

I think you have misunderstood the response, you can encode any Unicode string with encodeURI. I have used Cryptico with encode/decodeURI in production, and it works perfectly fine. Cryptico does not have trouble encrypting / ? : @ & = + $ # so it does not matter if encodeURI does nothing to those characters. Something must have gone wrong in your implementation, as it works fine for me:

Thank you. Perfect works.
