write(

chunk: string | ArrayBuffer | SharedArrayBuffer | ArrayBufferView<ArrayBufferLike>

): number | Promise<number>;

Write a chunk of data to the file.

If the file descriptor is not writable yet, the data is buffered.

@param chunk

The data to write

@returns

Number of bytes written or, if the write is pending, a Promise resolving to the number of bytes

class ArrayBuffer

Represents a raw buffer of binary data, which is used to store data for the different typed arrays. ArrayBuffers cannot be read from or written to directly, but can be passed to a typed array or DataView Object to interpret the raw buffer as needed.

readonly [Symbol.toStringTag]: string
readonly byteLength: number
Read-only. The length of the ArrayBuffer (in bytes).
resize(
newByteLength?: number
): void;
Resizes the ArrayBuffer to the specified size (in bytes).
MDN
resize(
byteLength: number
): ArrayBuffer;
Resize an ArrayBuffer in-place.
slice(
begin: number,
end?: number
): ArrayBuffer;
Returns a section of an ArrayBuffer.
transfer(
newByteLength?: number
): ArrayBuffer;
Creates a new ArrayBuffer with the same byte content as this buffer, then detaches this buffer.
MDN
transferToFixedLength(
newByteLength?: number
): ArrayBuffer;
Creates a new non-resizable ArrayBuffer with the same byte content as this buffer, then detaches this buffer.
