Functions​

reader​

</>
BufferUtil.reader(buf: buffer | string) → BufferReader

Creates a BufferReader. The reader can be constructed from either a string or a buffer object. 

local reader = BufferUtil.reader()

writer​

</>
BufferUtil.writer(initialCapacity: number?) → BufferWriter

Creates a zero-initialized BufferWriter. An initial capacity can optionally be set, and is defaulted to 0. 

local writer = BufferUtil.writer()
