BinaryString

Translate ArrayBuffers to strings and vice versa in JavaScript. This library is mainly useful for sending WebSocket messages as Binary packets without having a intermediate knowledge of how binary works. It is also compatible with environments that do not support ES6+.

Browser

Insert the script tag into your markup:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/binarystring.min.js"></script>

Usage in the browser:

const BinaryString = window.BinaryString;

const buffer = BinaryString.Write('test');
const string = BinaryString.Read(buffer); 

console.log(string, ' <--> ', buffer);
console.log('BinaryString works!');

Node.JS

Install with the command:

npm i binarystrings

Usage in Node.js:

const BinaryString = require('binarystring');

const buffer = BinaryString.Write('test');
const string = BinaryString.Read(buffer); 

console.log(string, ' <--> ', buffer);
console.log('BinaryString works!');
