Determine if an object is Buffer

Package Exports

  • is-buffer

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (is-buffer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Determine if an object is a Buffer (incl. browser Buffers)

saucelabs

Why not use Buffer.isBuffer?

This module lets you check if an object is a Buffer without using Buffer.isBuffer (which includes the whole buffer module in browserify).

It's future-proof and works in node too!

install

npm install is-buffer

usage

var isBuffer = require('is-buffer')

isBuffer(new Buffer(4)) // true

isBuffer(undefined) // false
isBuffer(null) // false
isBuffer('') // false
isBuffer(true) // false
isBuffer(false) // false
isBuffer(0) // false
isBuffer(1) // false
isBuffer(1.0) // false
isBuffer('string') // false
isBuffer({}) // false
isBuffer(function foo () {}) // false

browser support

This works in all browsers, except Safari below version 8, because it has a broken imeplementation of Object.prototype.constructor. The issue was fixed in Safari 8 and iOS 8.
