#### The buffer module from [node.js](https://nodejs.org/), for the browser.

With [browserify](http://browserify.org), simply `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global and you will get this module.
The goal is to provide an API that is 100% identical to
[node's Buffer API](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html). Read the
[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
## features
- Manipulate binary data like a boss, in all browsers!
- Super fast. Backed by Typed Arrays (`Uint8Array`/`ArrayBuffer`, not `Object`)
- Extremely small bundle size (**6.75KB minified + gzipped**, 51.9KB with comments)
- Excellent browser support (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari 9+, IE 11, iOS 9+, Android, etc.)
- Preserves Node API exactly, with one minor difference (see below)
- Square-bracket `buf[4]` notation works!
- Does not modify any browser prototypes or put anything on `window`
- Comprehensive test suite (including all buffer tests from node.js core)
## install
To use this module directly (without browserify), install it:
```bash
npm install buffer
```
This module was previously called **native-buffer-browserify**, but please use **buffer**
from now on.
If you do not use a bundler, you can use the [standalone script](https://bundle.run/buffer).
## usage
The module's API is identical to node's `Buffer` API. Read the
[official docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) for the full list of properties,
instance methods, and class methods that are supported.
As mentioned above, `require('buffer')` or use the `Buffer` global with
[browserify](http://browserify.org) and this module will automatically be included
in your bundle. Almost any npm module will work in the browser, even if it assumes that
the node `Buffer` API will be available.
To depend on this module explicitly (without browserify), require it like this:
```js
var Buffer = require('buffer/').Buffer // note: the trailing slash is important!
```
To require this module explicitly, use `require('buffer/')` which tells the node.js module
lookup algorithm (also used by browserify) to use the **npm module** named `buffer`
instead of the **node.js core** module named `buffer`!
## how does it work?
The Buffer constructor returns instances of `Uint8Array` that have their prototype
changed to `Buffer.prototype`. Furthermore, `Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array`,
so the returned instances will have all the node `Buffer` methods and the
`Uint8Array` methods. Square bracket notation works as expected -- it returns a
single octet.
The `Uint8Array` prototype remains unmodified.
## tracking the latest node api
This module tracks the Buffer API in the latest (unstable) version of node.js. The Buffer
API is considered **stable** in the
[node stability index](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/documentation.html#documentation_stability_index),
so it is unlikely that there will ever be breaking changes.
Nonetheless, when/if the Buffer API changes in node, this module's API will change
accordingly.
## related packages
- [`buffer-reverse`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-reverse) - Reverse a buffer
- [`buffer-xor`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/buffer-xor) - Bitwise xor a buffer
- [`is-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-buffer) - Determine if an object is a Buffer without including the whole `Buffer` package
## conversion packages
### convert typed array to buffer
Use [`typedarray-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/typedarray-to-buffer) to convert any kind of typed array to a `Buffer`. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
### convert buffer to typed array
`Buffer` is a subclass of `Uint8Array` (which is a typed array). So there is no need to explicitly convert to typed array. Just use the buffer as a `Uint8Array`.
### convert blob to buffer
Use [`blob-to-buffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/blob-to-buffer) to convert a `Blob` to a `Buffer`.
### convert buffer to blob
To convert a `Buffer` to a `Blob`, use the `Blob` constructor:
```js
var blob = new Blob([ buffer ])
```
Optionally, specify a mimetype:
```js
var blob = new Blob([ buffer ], { type: 'text/html' })
```
### convert arraybuffer to buffer
To convert an `ArrayBuffer` to a `Buffer`, use the `Buffer.from` function. Does not perform a copy, so it's super fast.
```js
var buffer = Buffer.from(arrayBuffer)
```
### convert buffer to arraybuffer
To convert a `Buffer` to an `ArrayBuffer`, use the `.buffer` property (which is present on all `Uint8Array` objects):
```js
var arrayBuffer = buffer.buffer.slice(
buffer.byteOffset, buffer.byteOffset + buffer.byteLength
)
```
Alternatively, use the [`to-arraybuffer`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/to-arraybuffer) module.
## performance
See perf tests in `/perf`.
`BrowserBuffer` is the browser `buffer` module (this repo). `Uint8Array` is included as a
sanity check (since `BrowserBuffer` uses `Uint8Array` under the hood, `Uint8Array` will
always be at least a bit faster). Finally, `NodeBuffer` is the node.js buffer module,
which is included to compare against.
NOTE: Performance has improved since these benchmarks were taken. PR welcome to update the README.

## Testing the project
First, install the project:
npm install
Then, to run tests in Node.js, run:
npm run test-node
To test locally in a browser, you can run:
npm run test-browser-es5-local # For ES5 browsers that don't support ES6
npm run test-browser-es6-local # For ES6 compliant browsers
This will print out a URL that you can then open in a browser to run the tests, using [airtap](https://www.npmjs.com/package/airtap).
To run automated browser tests using Saucelabs, ensure that your `SAUCE_USERNAME` and `SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables are set, then run:
npm test
This is what's run in Travis, to check against various browsers. The list of browsers is kept in the `bin/airtap-es5.yml` and `bin/airtap-es6.yml` files.
