About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Inspect Stream

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Writable stream for inspecting streamed data.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink

Usage

var inspectSinkStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' );

inspectSinkStream( [options,] clbk )

Creates a writable stream for inspecting streamed data.

function log( chunk, idx ) {
    console.log( 'index: %d', idx );
    console.log( chunk );
}

var stream = inspectSinkStream( log );

stream.write( 'a' );
stream.write( 'b' );
stream.write( 'c' );

stream.end();

// prints: index: 0
// prints: a
// prints: index: 1
// prints: b
// prints: index: 2
// prints: c

The function accepts the following options:

  • objectMode: specifies whether a stream should operate in objectMode. Default: false.
  • highWaterMark: specifies the Buffer level at which write() calls start returning false.
  • decodeStrings: specifies whether to encode strings as Buffer objects before writing data to a returned stream. Default: true.
  • defaultEncoding: default encoding when not explicitly specified when writing data. Default: 'utf8'.

To set stream options,

function log( chunk, idx ) {
    console.log( 'index: %d', idx );
    console.log( chunk );
}

var opts = {
    'objectMode': true,
    'highWaterMark': 64,
    'decodeStrings': false,
    'defaultEncoding': 'utf8'
};

var stream = inspectSinkStream( opts, log );

inspectSinkStream.factory( [options] )

Returns a function for creating streams which are identically configured according to provided options.

var opts = {
    'objectMode': true,
    'highWaterMark': 64
};

var factory = inspectSinkStream.factory( opts );

This method accepts the same options as inspectSinkStream().

factory( clbk )

Creates a writable stream for inspecting streamed data.

function log( chunk, idx ) {
    console.log( 'index: %d', idx );
    console.log( chunk );
}

var factory = inspectSinkStream.factory();

// Create 10 identically configured streams...
var streams = [];
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
    streams.push( factory( log ) );
}

inspectSinkStream.objectMode( [options,] clbk )

This method is a convenience function to create streams which always operate in objectMode.

function log( chunk, idx ) {
    console.log( 'index: %d', idx );
    console.log( chunk );
}

var stream = inspectSinkStream.objectMode( log );

stream.write( { 'value': 'a' } );
stream.write( { 'value': 'b' } );
stream.write( { 'value': 'c' } );

stream.end();

// prints: index: 0
// prints: {'value': 'a'}
// prints: index: 1
// prints: {'value': 'b'}
// prints: index: 2
// prints: {'value': 'c'}

This method accepts the same options as inspectSinkStream(); however, the method will always override the objectMode option in options.

Examples

var parseJSON = require( '@stdlib/utils-parse-json' );
var transformFactory = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-transform' ).factory;
var inspect = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ).objectMode;

function parse( chunk, enc, clbk ) {
    clbk( null, parseJSON( chunk ) );
}

function pluck( chunk, enc, clbk ) {
    clbk( null, chunk.value );
}

function square( chunk, enc, clbk ) {
    var v = +chunk;
    clbk( null, v*v );
}

function toStr( chunk, enc, clbk ) {
    clbk( null, chunk.toString() );
}

function join( chunk, enc, clbk ) {
    clbk( null, chunk+'\n' );
}

function logger( chunk, idx ) {
    console.log( 'index: %d', idx );
    console.log( chunk );
}

// Create a factory for generating streams running in `objectMode`:
var tStream = transformFactory({
    'objectMode': true
});

// Create streams for each transform:
var s1 = tStream( parse );
var s2 = tStream( pluck );
var s3 = tStream( square );
var s4 = tStream( toStr );
var s5 = tStream( join );

// Create a writable stream for inspecting the result of the transformations:
var is = inspect( logger );

// Create the pipeline:
s1.pipe( s2 )
    .pipe( s3 )
    .pipe( s4 )
    .pipe( s5 )
    .pipe( is );

// Write data to the pipeline...
var v;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
    v = '{"value":'+i+'}';
    s1.write( v, 'utf8' );
}
s1.end();
