Overview

A Buffer represents a sequence of zero or more bytes that can be written to or read from, and which expands as necessary to accomodate any bytes written to it. Buffers are used in many places in vert.x, for example to read/write data to/from NetSocket, AsyncFile, WebSocket, HttpClientRequest, HttpClientResponse, HttpServerRequest, HttpServerResponse etc. There are two ways to write data to a Buffer: The first method involves methods that take the form set_XXX. These methods write data into the buffer starting at the specified position. The position does not have to be inside data that has already been written to the buffer; the buffer will automatically expand to encompass the position plus any data that needs to be written. All positions are measured in bytes and start with zero. The second method involves methods that take the form append-XXX; these methods append data at the end of the buffer. Methods exist to both set and append all primitive types, String and other instances of Buffer. Data can be read from a buffer by invoking methods which take the form get_XXX. These methods take a parameter representing the position in the Buffer from where to read data.

+ (Object) create(initial_size_hint = 0)

Creates a new empty buffer. The #length of the buffer immediately after creation will be zero. to initially allocate to the buffer to prevent excessive automatic re-allocations as data is written to it.

Parameters:

  • initial_size_hint (FixNum) (defaults to: 0) —
    is a hint to the system for how much memory

def Buffer.create(initial_size_hint = 0)
  Buffer.new(org.vertx.java.core.buffer.Buffer.new(initial_size_hint))
end

+ (Object) create_from_str(str, enc = "UTF-8")

Create a new Buffer from a String

Parameters:

  • str (String) —
    The String to encode into the Buffer
  • enc (String) (defaults to: "UTF-8") —
    Encoding to use. Defaults to "UTF-8"
