Arcsecond Binary

Binary parsers for arcsecond!

Before opening an issue, check to see if your question has been answered in the FAQ!

Parser Input

The input for an arcsecond-binary parser can be a DataView, ArrayBuffer, TypedArray, or string.

If you have a Node Buffer

Although the underlying representation of a node Buffer is an ArrayBuffer, when accessing the the ArrayBuffer through the .buffer property, the data may not be as expected. If the buffer size is smaller than node's default pool size, then the ArrayBuffer will be created with the pool size, and the actual data will be somewhere inside the ArrayBuffer, with seemingly random data surrounding it. To avoid these issues, it's best to first cast a node Buffer to a Uint8Array, will will ensure that the ArrayBuffer properly correlates to the expected data.

const asUint8Array = new Uint8Array(nodeBuffer);
new DataView(asUint8Array.buffer);

API

Click here for the main arcsecond API docs. As arcsecond-binary is just a supplementary library, all of the parsers from both arcsecond and arcsecond binary can be used together.

u8

u8 :: Parser String Number a

u8 consumes exactly one byte, and returns a match that interprets the result as an unsigned integer in the range [0, 255].

Example

const input = new Uint8Array([0x48, 0x45, 0x4c, 0x4c, 0x4f]);

u8.run(input);
// -> {
//      isError: false,
//      result: 72,
//      index: 1,
//      data: null
//    }

s8

Example

const input = new Uint8Array([0x96, 0x45, 0x4c, 0x4c, 0x4f]);

s8.run(input);
