| Stability: 3 - 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. |
| |
| var StringDecoder = require('string_decoder').StringDecoder; |
| var decoder = new StringDecoder('utf8'); |
| |
| var cent = new Buffer([0xC2, 0xA2]); |
| console.log(decoder.write(cent)); |
| |
| var euro = new Buffer([0xE2, 0x82, 0xAC]); |
| console.log(decoder.write(euro)); |
| |
| ## Class: StringDecoder |

| |
| ### decoder.write(buffer) |
| |
| Returns a decoded string. |
| |
