##Uint8

Convert between Uint8Array and Buffer without memory copy in Browserify.

Only for browserify. Do not use this module for Node.js code. Some basic stuff work but not all. Array to Buffer conversion is fast in Node so this module isn't really necessary there.

Installation

npm install uint8

Usage

var uint8 = require('uint8')

API

uint8.uint8ToBuffer(uint8Array)

Convert Uint8Array to Buffer. Also accepts ArrayBuffer and ArrayBufferView subclasses.

uint8.bufferToUint8(buffer)

Convert Buffer to Uint8Array. Fast route only possible if original buffer(or its parent) was created from with uint8ToBuffer() function. Otherwise will fallback to memory copy.
