cast ObjC objects to JS data types
donpark opened this issue · comments
Are there built-in support for converting common ObjC data like NSData
, NSArray
, and NSDictionary
into Buffer
, Array
, and Object
? I browsed the source code but wasn't able to find them.
Yes, I did find toString
method leveraging the description
method.
Not at this time. The $
function basically does the opposite, but only very primitive data types are implemented.
Patches welcome, for making the $
function go the other way, and then we can also implement these higher order data type conversion functions as well.
I see. NP.
Re patches, perhaps later. For now, I just need to retrieve some binary clipboard data so opted to just write a simple pbpaste
-like command line tool w/binary support.
