Convert postgres bytea string into php byte string

Question

I have a string like \314\002\012\001 which I need to convert into a base64 encoded byte string.

Are you using a binary data type in the database? – Tom Shaw May 27 '11 at 2:24 — Tom Shaw, May 27 '11 at 2:24

You should be able to use the built-in php function pg_unescape_bytea. There is an example on that page.
