DEPRECATED

Use bl or binary-data instead. Please, let me known if you want to take this package name.

buffer-array

The Buffer with Array API

Example

const ba = require('buffer-array')
 
var buf = ba(4)
 
buf.push(new Buffer([0, 0x0a]))
var x = buf.popInt16BE() // x == 10

API

• constructor(data: Buffer): BufferArray
• constructor(size: Number): BufferArray

Create new instance of buffer-array with fixed-size buffer

• seek(pos: Number): void
• seek(): Number

Set / get current pointer position.

var packet = ba(38)
packet.pushInt32BE(640)
packet.seek() //  == 4
packet.length //  == 38  

length: Number

Get length of the internal buffer

clear(): void

Remove all written data and set pointer position to 0.

toBuffer(): Buffer

Get internal buffer (not a copy)
