Given a dictionary, transform it to a string. Then byte encode that string. Then base64 encode it and since this will go | |
on a url, use the urlsafe version. Then decode the byte string so that it can be else where. | |

data = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(json.dumps({'a': 123}).encode()).decode() | |
# And the decode is just as simple... | |
data = json.loads(base64.urlsafe_b64decode(query_param.encode()).decode()) | |
# Byte encode the string, base64 decode that, then byte decode, finally transform it to a dictionary |
