stream-connect

stream-connect

Connect two streams returning a single duplex stream. Use over .pipe() when you want to write to the source stream yet read from the destination.

Example

const connect = require('stream-connect')

function streamsOneAndTwo () {
  const streamOne = getStreamOneSomehow()
  const streamTwo = getStreamTwoSomehow()

  // We want to return streams one and two pre-connected. We can't return
  // `streamOne.pipe(streamTwo)` as this returns streamTwo while the calling code
  // wants to write to streamOne yet receive the output from streamTwo.
  // So, return a new stream which is streams one and two connected:
  const streamsOneAndTwo = connect(streamOne(), streamTwo())
}

// main.js is piped through the pre-connected streamOne and streamTwo, then stdout
fs.createReadStream('main.js')
  .pipe(streamsOneAndTwo())
  .pipe(process.stdout)

connect(one, two) ⇒ Duplex ⏏
