Node.js throws “btoa is not defined” error

by

The ‘btoa-atob’ module does not export a programmatic interface, it only provides command line utilities.

If you need to convert to Base64 you could do so using Buffer:

console.log(Buffer.from('Hello World!').toString('base64'));

Reverse (assuming the content you’re decoding is a utf8 string):

console.log(Buffer.from(b64Encoded, 'base64').toString());

Note: prior to Node v4, use new Buffer rather than Buffer.from.
