getU64Decoder

const getU64Decoder: (config?) => FixedSizeDecoder<bigint, 8>;

Returns a decoder for 64-bit unsigned integers (u64).

This decoder deserializes u64 values from 8 bytes. The decoded value is always a bigint.

For more details, see getU64Codec.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`config?`	`NumberCodecConfig`	Optional configuration to specify endianness (little by default).

A FixedSizeDecoder<bigint, 8> for decoding u64 values.

Decoding a u64 value.

const decoder = getU64Decoder();
const value = decoder.decode(new Uint8Array([0x2a, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00])); // 42n
