node.js: readSync from stdin?

Question

Is it possible to synchronously read from stdin in node.js? Because I'm writing a brainfuck to JavaScript compiler in JavaScript (just for fun). Brainfuck supports a read operation which needs to be implemented synchronously.

I tried this:

const fs = require('fs');
var c = fs.readSync(0,1,null,'utf-8');
console.log('character: '+c+' ('+c.charCodeAt(0)+')');

But this only produces this output:

fs:189
  var r = binding.read(fd, buffer, offset, length, position);
              ^
