I have a particular context in which one data are transformed a lot to get transferred across network. At the end, when I try to get this data back, I have unwanted characters at the beginning of the string.
First, I get the data from a db and it returns it to me as bytes (>), fully readable with .toString(). The result is:
{\"company\":\"xxx\",\"email\":\"xxx\",\"firstName\":\"xxx\",\"lastName\":\"xxx\",\"providerId\":\"xxx\",\"role\":\"xxx\",\"status\":\"xxx\"}
These data are passed to another "environment" with a function (not developed by me and that I cannot change) that returns the data in a "I don't really know what format it is".
I can decode it with the following piece of code:
jsonIdentity = JSON.stringify(bufferIdentity);
Buffer.from(JSON.parse(jsonIdentity).payload.buffer.data).toString('utf-8')
However, at the beginning of the string, I have the following:
"\u0008\u0006\u001a�\u0001\u0008�\u0001\u001a{{\"company\":\"xxx\",\"email\":\"xxx\",\"firstName\":\"xxx\",\"lastName\":\"xxx\",\"providerId\":\"xxx\",\"role\":\"xxx\",\"status\":\"xxx\"}
Also represented like that in my logs:
��{{"company":"xxx","email":"xxx","firstName":"xxx","lastName":"xxx","providerId":"xxx","role":"xxx","status":"xxx"
How can I remove it/prevent it to get in my result? It prevents me from using the JSON.
Update: here is the buffer I get:
{"status":200,"message":"","payload":{"buffer":{"type":"Buffer","data":[8,6,26,128,1,8,200,1,26,123,123,34,99,111,109,112,97,110,121,34,58,34,105,98,109,34,44,34,101,109,97,105,108,34,58,34,102,64,105,98,109,46,99,111,109,34,44,34,102,105,114,115,116,78,97,109,101,34,58,34,102,108,111,114,105,97,110,34,44,34,108,97,115,116,78,97,109,101,34,58,34,99,97,115,116,34,44,34,112,114,111,118,105,100,101,114,73,100,34,58,34,102,99,34,44,34,114,111,108,101,34,58,34,117,115,101,114,34,44,34,115,116,97,116,117,115,34,58,34,111,107,34,125,34,64,98,54,57,51,50,51,53,100,49,52,97,49,98,102,57,57,56,100,50,99,97,102,53,53,52,52,100,97,49,50,50,51,55,101,97,55,99,50,56,55,50,49,56,97,101,55,51,100,55,97,50,53,101,52,55,48,48,51,56,52,100,54,53,54,58,14,100,101,102,97,117,108,116,99,104,97,110,110,101,108]},"offset":10,"markedOffset":-1,"limit":133,"littleEndian":true,"noAssert":false}}
