Convert bytes to string Javascript

bin2string.js

function bin2string(array){
	var result = "";
	for(var i = 0; i < array.length; ++i){
		result+= (String.fromCharCode(array[i]));
	}
	return result;
}

Code works great for me. Thank you very much

Doesn't support multi-byte encodings
Ie the single utf8 character: bin2String([0xE2, 0x98, 0xB9 ]);

No, it will only work for ASCII.

array.map(function(b) { 
    return String.fromCharCode(b);
 } ).join("");

or

array.map(b => String.fromCharCode(b)).join("");

Thanks, that's much better.

function bin2string(array){
var result = "";
for(var i = 0; i < array.length; ++i){
result+= (String.fromCharCode(array[i]));
}
return result;
}

works. Thanks.

These things are not working when I am trying to print other languages. So Please give a suggestion regarding this matter.

String.fromCharCode(...array)

will also work

String.fromCharCode(...array)

will also work

Please notice that the spread syntax in function calls, probabaly has a length limit.

Hi @bkdotcom or anyone who is interested in multi-byte encodings, the TextDecoder could be used.

const a = [0xE2, 0x98, 0xB9];
const u8a = new Uint8Array(a);

const utf8decoder = new TextDecoder('utf-8');
const decodedText = utf8decoder.decode(u8a);

console.log(decodedText);
