OutgoingMessage.write()/end() and their derived classes support also Uint8Array besides string and Buffer.

Perhaps we should add the first node version(s) in which they were supported as well?

Perhaps we should add the first node version(s) in which they were supported as well?

Do you know the versions? Seems this was done long time ago and not directly in HTTP instead somewhere else.
Any hints where to start looking would be nice.

I just know that the version differs between write and end - e.g. 14.20.1 write allows it but end throws.

Update:
Found the PR: #33155 and updated docs to add this info

it doesn't work on 14.x because #33155 was backported but #31818 was not therefore end has still a Buffer || string check there.

I'm trying to remember, are other TypedArray types supported also? e.g. Uint16Array, Uint32Array, etc. If so, this should likely be updated to be TypedArray rather than just Uint8Array

According to docs e.g. fs supports this but not http, see

node/lib/_http_outgoing.js

Lines 836 to 845 in 775bf62

if (chunk === null) {
throw new ERR_STREAM_NULL_VALUES();
} else if (typeof chunk === 'string') {
len = Buffer.byteLength(chunk, encoding);
} else if (isUint8Array(chunk)) {
len = chunk.length;
} else {
throw new ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE(
'chunk', ['string', 'Buffer', 'Uint8Array'], chunk);
}
