buffer-equals

Node.js buffer.equals() ponyfill

Deprecated: Just use Buffer#equals(). It has been available since Node.js 0.12.

Install

$ npm install --save buffer-equals

Usage

const bufferEquals = require('buffer-equals');

bufferEquals(new Buffer('foo'), new Buffer('foo'));
//=> true

bufferEquals(new Buffer('foo'), new Buffer('bar'));
//=> false

API

See the buffer.equals() docs.

The only difference is that you pass in the buffer as the first argument instead of calling the .equals() method on the buffer instance.
