Example

const encoder = new TextEncoder();
const str = "Hello";
const encodedData = encoder.encode(str);
console.log(encodedData); // Outputs: Uint8Array(5) [72, 101, 108, 108, 111]

variable

var TextEncoder: { … }

The constructor object for TextEncoder, used to create an encoder that turns strings into UTF-8 encoded bytes.

new TextEncoder(): TextEncoder

Properties

Methods

`encode`

encode(input?: string): Uint8Array<ArrayBuffer>

Turns a string into binary data (in the form of a Uint8Array) using UTF-8 encoding.

`encodeInto`

encodeInto(input: string, dest: Uint8Array<ArrayBufferLike>): TextEncoderEncodeIntoResult

Encodes a string into the destination Uint8Array and returns the result of the encoding.
