Properties

encoding

• Readonly encoding: string

The encoding supported by the TextDecoder instance.

Defined in

node_modules/@types/node/util.d.ts:1190

---

fatal

• Readonly fatal: boolean

The value will be true if decoding errors result in a TypeError being thrown.

Defined in

node_modules/@types/node/util.d.ts:1195

---

ignoreBOM

• Readonly ignoreBOM: boolean

The value will be true if the decoding result will include the byte order mark.

Defined in

node_modules/@types/node/util.d.ts:1200

Methods

decode

▸ decode(input?, options?): string

Decodes the input and returns a string. If options.stream is true, any incomplete byte sequences occurring at the end of the input are buffered internally and emitted after the next call to textDecoder.decode().

If textDecoder.fatal is true, decoding errors that occur will result in aTypeError being thrown.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
input?	null | ArrayBuffer | ArrayBufferView	An ArrayBuffer, DataView, or TypedArray instance containing the encoded data.
options?	Object	-
options.stream?	boolean	-

Returns

string
