## Install
# Install

```console
$ npm i @ipld/dag-cbor
```

This is the *new* interface meant for use by itself or with `multiformats` and
`@ipld/block`. It is not used by `js-ipld-format` which is currently
used in IPFS. That library is [here](https://github.com/ipld/js-ipld-dag-cbor).

Usage:

```javascript
import { encode, decode } from '@ipld/dag-cbor'
import { CID } from 'multiformats'

const obj = {
x: 1,
/* CID instances are encoded as links */
y: [2, 3, CID.parse('QmaozNR7DZHQK1ZcU9p7QdrshMvXqWK6gpu5rmrkPdT3L4')],
z: {
a: CID.parse('QmaozNR7DZHQK1ZcU9p7QdrshMvXqWK6gpu5rmrkPdT3L4'),
b: null,
c: 'string'
}
}

let data = encode(obj)
let decoded = decode(data)
decoded.y[0] // 2
CID.asCID(decoded.z.a) // cid instance

// encode/decode options are exported for use with cborg's encodedLength and decodeFirst
import { encodeOptions, decodeOptions } from '@ipld/dag-cbor'
import { encodedLength } from 'cborg/length'
import { decodeFirst } from 'cborg'

// dag-cbor encoded length of obj in bytes
const byteLength = encodedLength(obj, encodeOptions)
byteLength // 104

// concatenate two dag-cbor encoded obj
const concatenatedData = new Uint8Array(data.length * 2)
concatenatedData.set(data)
concatenatedData.set(data, data.length)

// returns dag-cbor decoded obj at the beginning of the buffer as well as the remaining bytes
const [first, remainder] = decodeFirst(concatenatedData, decodeOptions)
assert.deepStrictEqual(first, obj)
assert.deepStrictEqual(remainder, data)
## Browser `<script>` tag

Loading this module through a script tag will make its exports available as `IpldDagCbor` in the global namespace.
