int64-buffer

64bit Long Integer on Buffer/Array/ArrayBuffer in Pure JavaScript

JavaScript's number based on IEEE-754 could only handle 53 bits precision. This module provides two pair of classes: Int64BE/Uint64BE and Int64LE/Uint64LE which could hold 64 bits long integer and loose no bit.

Features

• Int64BE/Int64LE for signed integer, Uint64BE/Uint64LE for unsigned.
• Int64BE/Uint64BE for big-endian, Uint64BE/Uint64LE for little-endian.
• Buffer/Uint8Array/Array/Array-like storage of 8 bytes length with offset.
• No mathematical methods provided, such as add(), sub(), mul(), div() etc.
• Optimized only for 64 bits. If you need Int128, use bignum etc.
• Small. 3KB when minified. No other module required. Portable pure JavaScript.
• Tested on node.js v4, v6, v8 and Web browsers.

Usage

Int64BE is the class to host a 64 bit signed long integer int64_t.

var Int64BE = require("int64-buffer").Int64BE;

var big = new Int64BE(-1);

console.log(big - 0); // -1

console.log(big.toBuffer()); // <Buffer ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff>

It uses Buffer on Node.js and Uint8Array on modern Web browsers.

Uint64BE is the class to host a 64 bit unsigned positive long integer uint64_t.

var Uint64BE = require("int64-buffer").Uint64BE;

var big = new Uint64BE(Math.pow(2, 63)); // a big number with 64 bits

console.log(big - 0); // 9223372036854776000 = IEEE-754 loses last bits

console.log(big + ""); // "9223372036854775808" = perfectly correct

Int64LE and Uint64LE work as same as above but with little-endian storage.

Input Constructor

• new Uint64BE(number)

var big = new Uint64BE(1234567890);
console.log(big - 0); // 1234567890

• new Uint64BE(high, low)

var big = new Uint64BE(0x12345678, 0x9abcdef0);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "123456789abcdef0"

• new Uint64BE(string, radix)

var big = new Uint64BE("123456789abcdef0", 16);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "123456789abcdef0"

• new Uint64BE(buffer)

var buffer = new Buffer([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]);
var big = new Uint64BE(buffer);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "102030405060708"

• new Uint64BE(uint8array)

var uint8array = new Uint8Array([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]);
var big = new Uint64BE(uint8array);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "102030405060708"

• new Uint64BE(arraybuffer)

var arraybuffer = (new Uint8Array([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8])).buffer;
var big = new Uint64BE(arraybuffer);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "102030405060708"

• new Uint64BE(array)

var array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8];
var big = new Uint64BE(array);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "102030405060708"

• new Uint64BE(buffer, offset)

var buffer = new Buffer([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16]);
var big = new Uint64BE(buffer, 8);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "90a0b0c0d0e0f10"

• new Uint64BE(buffer, offset, number)

var buffer = new Buffer(16);
var big = new Uint64BE(buffer, 8, 0x1234567890);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "1234567890"
console.log(buffer[15].toString(16)); // "90"

• new Uint64BE(buffer, offset, high, low)

var buffer = new Uint8Array(16);
var big = new Uint64BE(buffer, 8, 0x12345678, 0x9abcdef0);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "123456789abcdef0"
console.log(buffer[15].toString(16)); // "f0"

• new Uint64BE(buffer, offset, string, radix)

var buffer = new Array(16);
var big = new Uint64BE(buffer, 8, "123456789abcdef0", 16);
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "123456789abcdef0"
console.log(buffer[15].toString(16)); // "f0"

Output Methods

• Number context

var big = Uint64BE(1234567890);
console.log(big - 0); // 1234567890

• String context

var big = Uint64BE(1234567890);
console.log(big + ""); // "1234567890"

• JSON context

var big = Uint64BE();
console.log(JSON.stringify({big: big})); // {"big":1234567890}

• toNumber()

var big = Uint64BE(1234567890);
console.log(big.toNumber()); // 1234567890

• toString(radix)

var big = Uint64BE(0x1234567890);
console.log(big.toString()); // "78187493520"
console.log(big.toString(16)); // "1234567890"

• toBuffer()

var big = Uint64BE([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]);
console.log(big.toBuffer()); // <Buffer 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08>

• toArrayBuffer()

var big = Uint64BE(0);
var buf = new Int8Array(big.toArrayBuffer());
console.log(buf); // Int8Array { '0': 1, '1': 2, '2': 3, '3': 4, '4': 5, '5': 6, '6': 7, '7': 8 }

• toArray()

var big = Uint64BE([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]);
console.log(big.toArray()); // [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ]
