Change Log¶

4.1.0¶

Released 07/24/2019 * Adds int64 support for node v12+ * Drops support for node v4

Released 10/21/2017 * Major breaking changes arriving in v4.

Ability to read data from a specific offset. ex: readInt8(5)
Ability to write over data when an offset is given (see breaking changes) ex: writeInt8(5, 0);
Ability to set internal read and write offsets.

Old constructor patterns have been completely removed. It's now required to use the SmartBuffer.fromXXX() factory constructors. Read more on the v4 docs.
rewind(), skip(), moveTo() have been removed.
Internal private properties are now prefixed with underscores (_).
All writeXXX() methods that are given an offset will now overwrite data instead of insert
insertXXX() methods have been added for when you want to insert data at a specific offset (this replaces the old behavior of writeXXX() when an offset was provided)

Released 02/19/2017 * Adds missing type definitions for some internal functions.

Released 02/17/2017

Fixes a bug where using readString with a length of zero resulted in reading the remaining data instead of returning an empty string. (Fixed by Seldszar)

Released 02/15/2017

Fixes a bug leftover from the TypeScript refactor where .readIntXXX() resulted in .readUIntXXX() being called by mistake.

Released 02/12/2017

readUIntXXXX() methods will now throw an exception if they attempt to read beyond the bounds of the valid buffer data available.
- Note This is technically a breaking change, so version is bumped to 3.x.

Entire package re-written in TypeScript (2.1)
Backwards compatibility is preserved for now
