buffer: allow Uint8Array input to methods #10236
Conversation
Allow all methods on `buffer` and `Buffer` to take `Uint8Array` arguments where it makes sense. On the native side, there is effectively no difference, and as a bonus the `isUint8Array` check is faster than `instanceof Buffer`.
Make sure to run benchmarks before backporting, because I'm quite surprised that replacing |

Shouldn't need to reference it this way. copy()
is native method. Can simply call binding.copy(...)
.

LGTM but echoing @mscdex, some error messages need updating.
Marking this as semver-major because of the change in error messages... |
@mscdex @bnoordhuis Would you be okay with me updating the error messages in a follow-up PR? I know they need to be changed and I know that that’s semver-major, it just feels a bit silly to hold up the rest of the PR on that |
I don't think intentionally leaving incorrect error messages is a good idea. |
Alright, updated with error messages changed. CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit/6621/ |

LGTM, this would also allow to slightly reduce the forced usage of Buffer()
objects where an Uint8Array constructor is actually sufficient. 👍
Landed in beca324, thanks for the reviews! |

Description of change
Allow all methods on
buffer
andBuffer
to takeUint8Array
arguments where it makes sense. On the native side, there is
effectively no difference, and as a bonus the
isUint8Array
check is faster than
instanceof Buffer
