json-binary

A JSON serializer and parser which supports Uint8Array binary data. Encodes binary data as Base64 encoded data URI strings.

Basic Usage

import * as JSONB from '@jsonjoy.com/json-pack/lib/json-binary';

const data = {
  foo: new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]),
};

const json = JSONB.stringify(data);
// {"foo":"data:application/octet-stream;base64,AAECAw=="}

const data2 = JSONB.parse(json);
// { foo: Uint8Array { 1, 2, 3 } }

console.log(data2.foo instanceof Uint8Array); // true
