I would like decode data from buffer 'data'.

I was trying use Buffer.from but with partial success.

Any ideas how should be done properly?

Hi @Pawel Kwiatkowski, it looks like there's two buffers in this example that match each other?

If this is the case, the first buffer of character codes can be converted into a string by using the following function:

String.fromCharCode(...field.split(" "))

Check out an example of this in use:
