    Module index

    Encode/decode streams of bytes with length-prefixes.

    import { pipe } from 'it-pipe'
    import * as lp from 'it-length-prefixed'

    const encoded = []

    // encode
    await pipe(
    [uint8ArrayFromString('hello world')],
    (source) => lp.encode(source),
    async source => {
    for await (const chunk of source) {
    encoded.push(chunk.slice()) // (.slice converts Uint8ArrayList to Uint8Array)
    }
    }
    )

    console.log(encoded)
    // => [Buffer <0b 68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64>]

    const decoded = []

    // decode
    await pipe(
    encoded, // e.g. from above
    (source) => lp.decode(source),
    async source => {
    for await (const chunk of source) {
    decoded.push(chunk.slice()) // (.slice converts Uint8ArrayList to Uint8Array)
    }
    }
    )

    console.log(decoded)
    // => [Buffer <68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64>]
