isBuffer#

Check if the given value is a Buffer.

Usage Scenarios#

• Data Validation: When working with Node.js applications that handle binary data, you need to ensure that a certain value is a Buffer before performing operations like encoding, decoding, or file I/O.
• Function Parameter Validation: In a function where a Buffer is expected as a parameter, you can use the isBuffer method to verify the parameter type, preventing errors from non - Buffer values.
• Conditional Judgment: Execute different logic based on whether a value is a Buffer.

Examples#

import { isBuffer } from 'funtool';

isBuffer(Buffer.from('test')); // ✅ true
isBuffer('test'); // ❌ false

Signature#

function isBuffer(v: any): boolean

Parameters#

• v (any): The value to test if it is a Buffer.

Returns#

• (boolean): Returns true if the value is a Buffer, otherwise returns false.
