var str = arrayBufferToString(buffer, encoding='utf8')

Convert ArrayBuffer/ArrayBufferView/Array buffer to string with defined encoding. Available encoding: utf8, binary, base64, hex, ascii, latin1, ucs2, utf16 and many others.

Note: in browser it relies on TextDecoder API, so if you are dealing with charsets other than utf8, ascii, binary or base64 in old browsers, please include encoding polyfill.
