 * `buffer` {Buffer|TypedArray|DataView} A buffer that will be filled with the
   file data read.
 * `offset` {integer} The location in the buffer at which to start filling.
-* `length` {integer} The number of bytes to read.
+  **Default:** `0`
+* `length` {integer} The number of bytes to read. **Default:**
+  `buffer.byteLength - offset`
 * `position` {integer|bigint|null} The location where to begin reading data
   from the file. If `null` or `-1`, data will be read from the current file
   position, and the position will be updated. If `position` is a non-negative
   integer, the current file position will remain unchanged.
+  **Default:**: `null`
 * Returns: {Promise} Fulfills upon success with an object with two properties:
   * `bytesRead` {integer} The number of bytes read
   * `buffer` {Buffer|TypedArray|DataView} A reference to the passed in `buffer`
