Circle Buffer

A simple circular array buffer for efficient management of circular buffers in JavaScript/TypeScript.

Installation

npm install circle-buffer

Usage

import { CircularBuffer } from 'circle-buffer';

// Create a circular buffer with a limit of 5
const buffer = new CircularBuffer({ limit: 5 });

// Add values to the buffer
buffer.forward('A');
buffer.forward('B');
buffer.forward('C');

// Get the current state of the buffer
console.log(buffer.get()); // Output: 'ABC'

// Rewind the buffer
buffer.rewind();

// Get the updated buffer state
console.log(buffer.get()); // Output: 'AB'

// Reset the buffer
buffer.reset();

// Get the buffer state after reset
console.log(buffer.get()); // Output: ''

API

CircularBuffer

Constructor

• new CircularBuffer(options: { limit: number }): CircularBuffer

  Creates a new instance of the CircularBuffer class with the specified limit.

  • options.limit: The maximum number of elements the circular buffer can hold.

Methods

• get(): string

  Returns a string representation of the current state of the circular buffer.

• reset(): void

  Resets the circular buffer by filling it with empty strings.

• forward(value: string): void

  Moves the buffer forward by one position, adding the provided value at the end of the buffer. If the buffer is full, the oldest value is removed.

  • value: The string value to be added to the buffer.

• rewind(): void

  Moves the buffer backward by one position, removing the last value. If the buffer becomes empty, an empty string is added at the beginning.
