# Array
Class [`Napi::Array`][] inherits from class [`Napi::Object`][].
Arrays are native representations of JavaScript Arrays. `Napi::Array` is a wrapper
around `napi_value` representing a JavaScript Array.
[`Napi::TypedArray`][] and [`Napi::ArrayBuffer`][] correspond to JavaScript data
types such as [`Napi::Int32Array`][] and [`Napi::ArrayBuffer`][], respectively,
that can be used for transferring large amounts of data from JavaScript to the
native side. An example illustrating the use of a JavaScript-provided
`ArrayBuffer` in native code is available [here](https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-examples/tree/main/src/2-js-to-native-conversion/array_buffer_to_native/node-addon-api).
## Constructor
```cpp
Napi::Array::Array();
```
Returns an empty array.
If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will be thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
attempting to use the returned value.
```cpp
Napi::Array::Array(napi_env env, napi_value value);
```
- `[in] env` - The environment in which to create the array.
- `[in] value` - The primitive to wrap.
Returns a `Napi::Array` wrapping a `napi_value`.
If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
attempting to use the returned value.
## Methods
### New
```cpp
static Napi::Array Napi::Array::New(napi_env env);
```
- `[in] env` - The environment in which to create the array.
Returns a new `Napi::Array`.
If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
attempting to use the returned value.
### New
```cpp
static Napi::Array Napi::Array::New(napi_env env, size_t length);
```
- `[in] env` - The environment in which to create the array.
- `[in] length` - The length of the array.
Returns a new `Napi::Array` with the given length.
If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
attempting to use the returned value.
### Length
```cpp
uint32_t Napi::Array::Length() const;
```
Returns the length of the array.
Note:
This can execute JavaScript code implicitly according to JavaScript semantics.
If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
attempting to use the returned value.
