constructor, but a set of typed array ones:Int8Array()
,Uint8Array()
,Uint8ClampedArray()
,Int16Array()
,Uint16Array()
,Int32Array()
,Uint32Array()

Usage
bigint-conversion
can be imported to your project with npm
:
npm install bigint-conversion
Then either require (Node.js CJS):
const bigintConversion = require('bigint-conversion')
or import (JavaScript ES module):
import * as bigintConversion from 'bigint-conversion'
The appropriate version for browser or node is automatically exported.
BigInt is ES-2020. In order to use it with TypeScript you should set
target
(and probably alsolib
) to at leastes2020
intsconfig.json
.
You can also download the IIFE bundle, the ESM bundle or the UMD bundle and manually add it to your project, or, if you have already installed bigint-conversion
in your project, just get the bundles from node_modules/bigint-conversion/dist/bundles/
.
