# StringDecoder
|
|
|
|
Stability: 2 - Stable
|
|
|
|
To use this module, do `require('string_decoder')`. StringDecoder decodes a
|
|
buffer to a string. It is a simple interface to `buffer.toString()` but provides
|
|
additional support for utf8.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const StringDecoder = require('string_decoder').StringDecoder;
|
|
const decoder = new StringDecoder('utf8');
|
|
|
|
const cent = Buffer.from([0xC2, 0xA2]);
|
|
console.log(decoder.write(cent));
|
|
|
|
const euro = Buffer.from([0xE2, 0x82, 0xAC]);
|
|
console.log(decoder.write(euro));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
