How to convert buffer to string?

Question

Node.js

Hello everyone! After such a query to the database:

Firebird.attach(options, function(err, db) {

    if (err)
        throw err;

    db.query('SELECT USERNAME FROM USERS', function(err, result) {
        console.log(result)
        db.detach();

    });
});

The console outputs the following:

How to get normal text? A string... Not a buffer. Or can it be converted somehow? Tell me please.
Thank you!

Answer 1

if the encoding of the string in the buffer is UTF-8 or UTF-16 then Buffer.toString or so
String decoder if the console does not support utf then Buffer.transcode can be used for output
