Ticket(s): FE-4855
Problem
Fauna supports a Bytes type which is transmitted as a base-64-encoded string
https://docs.fauna.com/fauna/current/reference/fql_reference/types#bytes
We also had a type issue where JS Date could not be used as a query argument, so I added Date to arg type as well as a test.
Solution
Add encoding and decoding of the Bytes type
Result
ArrayBuffer
s andUint8Array
(as well as Node'sBuffer
since that extendsUint8Array
) classes are encoded to Fauna Bytes. Attempting to encode any other TypedArray results in an error.Fauna Bytes are decoded into
Uint8Array
, which can be used to create the desired type.See tests for examples.
Out of scope
N/A
Testing
Added unit and integration tests.
