cbor-bignumber

This package adds support for BigDecimal and BigFloats to the cbor package, relying on bignumber.js.

MOVE TO CBOR2

NOTE

All new users and most existing users of this library should move to the cbor2 library. It is where most maintenance and support and all new features are happening. cbor2 has support for JavaScript bigints enabled by default.

Only catastrophic bugs will be fixed in this library going forward.

Installation

npm install cbor cbor-bignumber

Usage

Before trying to encode or decode:

const cbor = require('cbor');
const bdec = require('cbor-bigdecimal');
bdec(cbor);

If you want to remove the added encoders and decoders:

cbor.reset();

If you need to access the same BigNumber class that cbor-bigdecimal is (e.g. because the class has been mangled by your compressor), it is available as bdec.BigNumber.

Supported Types

Decoding supports the following CBOR tag numbers:

| Tag | Generated Type | |-----|---------------------| | 4 | bignumber | | 5 | bignumber |
