Creates Uint8Array buffers from hexadecimal strings, and vice versa.
Installation
npm install hex-array
Usage
var hexarray = require('hex-array');
hexarray.toString(new Uint8Array([0xc9, 0x13, 0x4b, 0xca,
0x6a, 0x49, 0xfc, 0xf8,
0x2d, 0x30, 0x3b, 0x4e,
0xa0, 0x26, 0x3a, 0xd8]);
// = C9134BCA6A49FCF82D303B4EA0263AD8
hexarray.fromString("C9134BCA6A49FCF82D303B4EA0263AD8");
// = Uint8Array [ 201, 19, 75, 202, 106, 73, 252, 248, 45, 48, 59, 78, 160, 38, 58, 216 ]
Methods
hexarray.toString(array, [options])
converts the given buffer to a string containing its hexadecimal representation.
array
a Uint8Array buffer to convert.
options
an optional object with the following members:
grouping
this number of hex bytes are grouped together with spaces between groups. 0 means no grouping is applied. 0 if unspecified.rowlength
the number of groups which make up a row. When 0, no splitting into rows occurs. 0 if unspecified.uppercase
if true, the output will be in uppercase. true by default.
return
a hexadecimal string representing the buffer.
hexarray.fromString(string)
takes a string containing hexadecimal and returns the equivalent as a Uint8Array buffer.
string
The string to convert. Whitespace is ignored. If an odd number of
characters are specified, it will act as if preceeded with a leading 0; that
is, "FFF" is equivalent to "0FFF".
return
a Uint8Array array.
