Package Exports

random-access-memory
random-access-memory/index.js

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 (random-access-memory) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

random-access-memory

Exposes the same interface as random-access-file but instead of writing/reading data to a file it maintains it in memory. This is useful when running tests where you don't want to write files to disk.

npm install random-access-memory

Usage

const RAM = require('random-access-memory')
const file = new RAM()

file.write(0, Buffer.from('hello'), function () {
  file.write(5, Buffer.from(' world'), function () {
    file.read(0, 11, console.log) // returns Buffer(hello world)
  })
})

You can also initialize a RAM instance with a Buffer:

const file = new RAM(Buffer.from('hello world'))

If you want to mimick a folder on disk, you can use const createRAM = RAM.reusable().

This stores the created ram instances, ie ram = createRAM(name) in a map so they can be reopened with the same state, similar to working with files, but still backed by ram.
