@aws-sdk/eventstream-serde-browser is a package within the AWS SDK for JavaScript that provides serialization and deserialization of event streams in a browser environment. This is particularly useful for handling AWS services that use event streams, such as AWS Transcribe or AWS Kinesis.
Serialization of Event Streams
This feature allows you to serialize an event stream into a format that can be transmitted over the network. The code sample demonstrates how to create an EventStreamMarshaller and use it to serialize an event.
const { EventStreamMarshaller } = require('@aws-sdk/eventstream-serde-browser');
const marshaller = new EventStreamMarshaller(utf8Encoder, utf8Decoder);
const event = { eventType: 'example', data: 'sample data' };
const serializedEvent = marshaller.marshall(event);
console.log(serializedEvent);
Deserialization of Event Streams
This feature allows you to deserialize an event stream received over the network back into a JavaScript object. The code sample demonstrates how to create an EventStreamMarshaller and use it to deserialize a binary event stream.
const { EventStreamMarshaller } = require('@aws-sdk/eventstream-serde-browser');
const marshaller = new EventStreamMarshaller(utf8Encoder, utf8Decoder);
const serializedEvent = new Uint8Array([/* some binary data */]);
const event = marshaller.unmarshall(serializedEvent);
console.log(event);
The 'eventsource' package is a polyfill for the EventSource API, which allows you to receive server-sent events in a browser environment. While it does not provide serialization and deserialization of event streams, it is useful for handling real-time data streams from a server.
The 'kinesis-client' package is a client library for AWS Kinesis, which provides functionalities for consuming and processing data streams. It includes features for handling event streams but is more focused on Kinesis-specific use cases compared to the general-purpose event stream serialization/deserialization provided by @aws-sdk/eventstream-serde-browser.
