# buffer-equals [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/buffer-equals)
> Node.js [`buffer.equals()`](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#buffer_buf_equals_otherbuffer) [ponyfill](https://ponyfill.com)
**Deprecated: Just use [`Buffer#equals()`](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#buffer_buf_equals_otherbuffer). It has been available since Node.js 0.12.**
## Install
```
$ npm install --save buffer-equals
```
## Usage
```js
const bufferEquals = require('buffer-equals');
bufferEquals(new Buffer('foo'), new Buffer('foo'));
//=> true
bufferEquals(new Buffer('foo'), new Buffer('bar'));
//=> false
```
## API
See the [`buffer.equals()` docs](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#buffer_buf_equals_otherbuffer).
The only difference is that you pass in the buffer as the first argument instead of calling the `.equals()` method on the buffer instance.
