function read<TBuffer extends ArrayBufferView<ArrayBufferLike>>(

fd: number,

buffer: TBuffer,

offset: number,

length: number,

position: null | ReadPosition,

callback: (err: null | ErrnoException, bytesRead: number, buffer: TBuffer) => void

): void;

Read data from the file specified by fd.

The callback is given the three arguments, (err, bytesRead, buffer).

If the file is not modified concurrently, the end-of-file is reached when the number of bytes read is zero.

If this method is invoked as its util.promisify() ed version, it returns a promise for an Object with bytesRead and buffer properties.

@param buffer

The buffer that the data will be written to.

@param offset

The position in buffer to write the data to.

@param length

The number of bytes to read.

@param position

Specifies where to begin reading from in the file. If position is null or -1 , data will be read from the current file position, and the file position will be updated. If position is an integer, the file position will be unchanged.

function read<TBuffer extends ArrayBufferView<ArrayBufferLike>>(

fd: number,

options: ReadAsyncOptions<TBuffer>,

callback: (err: null | ErrnoException, bytesRead: number, buffer: TBuffer) => void

): void;

Similar to the above fs.read function, this version takes an optional options object. If not otherwise specified in an options object, buffer defaults to Buffer.alloc(16384), offset defaults to 0, length defaults to buffer.byteLength, - offset as of Node 17.6.0 position defaults to null

fd: number,

buffer: TBuffer,

options: ReadSyncOptions,

callback: (err: null | ErrnoException, bytesRead: number, buffer: TBuffer) => void

): void;

Read data from the file specified by fd.

The callback is given the three arguments, (err, bytesRead, buffer).

If the file is not modified concurrently, the end-of-file is reached when the number of bytes read is zero.

If this method is invoked as its util.promisify() ed version, it returns a promise for an Object with bytesRead and buffer properties.

@param buffer

The buffer that the data will be written to.

function read(

Read data from the file specified by fd.

The callback is given the three arguments, (err, bytesRead, buffer).

If the file is not modified concurrently, the end-of-file is reached when the number of bytes read is zero.
