The Tupelo library has Clojure wrappers around the base Java Base64 and Base64Url functionality. A look at the unit tests show the code in action:

(ns tst.tupelo.base64
  (:require [tupelo.base64 :as b64] ))

code-str    (b64/encode-str  orig)
result      (b64/decode-str  code-str) ]
(is (= orig result))

where the input & output values are plain strings (there is also a variant for byte arrays).

The API docs are here.
