It's an ugly module, needs lot of a refactoring, i mainly ported @dominictarr's [level-couch-sync][lcs] to a general sync module.
I did this because I'm trying to replicate npmjs registry to riak.
var sync = require("couchdb-sync")("https://fullfatdb.npmjs.com/registry");
sync
.on( "data", function( doc ){
// doc is a couchdb doc
})
.on( "progress", function( progress ){
// progress of replication
})
.on( "fail", function( err ){
// ohhh uhhh npm is down?!:D
});
It emits data
and progress
events, and you can even pause and resume syncing by calling instance.feed.pause()
and instance.feed.resume()
methods. (It can be useful if data comes too fast).
