* @name bufferToU8a
|
|
* @summary Creates a Uint8Array value from a Buffer object.
|
|
* @description
|
|
* `null` inputs returns an empty result, `Buffer` values return the actual value as a `Uint8Array`. Anything that is not a `Buffer` object throws an error.
|
|
* @example
|
|
* <BR>
|
|
*
|
|
* ```javascript
|
|
* import { bufferToU8a } from '@polkadot/util';
|
|
*
|
|
* bufferToU8a(Buffer.from([1, 2, 3]));
|
|
* ```
