About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Allocate a buffer from an ArrayBuffer.
npm install @stdlib/buffer-from-arraybufferAlternatively,
- To load the package in a website via a
scripttag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on theesmbranch (see README). - If you are using Deno, visit the
denobranch (see README for usage intructions). - For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the
umdbranch (see README).
The branches.md file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.
To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
var arraybuffer2buffer = require( '@stdlib/buffer-from-arraybuffer' );Allocates a buffer from an ArrayBuffer.
var ArrayBuffer = require( '@stdlib/array-buffer' );
var ab = new ArrayBuffer( 10 );
var buf = arraybuffer2buffer( ab );
// returns <Buffer>By default, the function allocates a buffer starting from the first byte of the provided ArrayBuffer. To specify an alternative starting index, provide a byteOffset.
var ArrayBuffer = require( '@stdlib/array-buffer' );
var ab = new ArrayBuffer( 10 );
var buf = arraybuffer2buffer( ab, 2 );
// returns <Buffer>
var len = buf.length;
// returns 8By default, the function allocates a buffer until the end of the provided ArrayBuffer. To allocate a specified number of ArrayBuffer bytes, provide a length.
var ArrayBuffer = require( '@stdlib/array-buffer' );
var ab = new ArrayBuffer( 10 );
var buf = arraybuffer2buffer( ab, 2, 4 );
// returns <Buffer>
var len = buf.length;
// returns 4The behavior of this function varies across Node.js versions due to changes in the underlying Node.js APIs:
<3.0.0: the function copiesArrayBufferbytes to a newBufferinstance.>=3.0.0and<5.10.0: if provided abyteOffset, the function copiesArrayBufferbytes to a newBufferinstance; otherwise, the function returns a view of anArrayBufferwithout copying the underlying memory.<6.0.0: if provided an emptyArrayBuffer, the function returns an emptyBufferwhich is not anArrayBufferview.>=6.0.0: the function returns a view of anArrayBufferwithout copying the underlying memory.

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
