Package Exports

text-encoder-lite

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

API Overview

Basic Usage

  var uint8array = new TextEncoderLite('utf-8').encode(string);
  var string = new TextDecoderLite('utf-8').decode(uint8array);

Encodings

Only UTF-8 encoding is supported. See text-encoding for full support, including multi-lingual non-standard encodings that aren't supported by TextEncoder proper.

If it seems beneficial I could bring in support for utf-16be, utf-16le, and x-user-defined.
