@art-of-coding/use-stream v0.0.2

Use Redis Streams

'Use' Redis streams for node.js.

Inspired by React Hooks.

Extracted from a personal project. It makes use of my other streams library, redis-streams-manager.

Install

npm i @art-of-coding/use-stream

Example

Every call to useStream creates a separate subscription, so you can use unsubscribe() when you're done locally without affecting other possible subscriptions.

import IORedis from 'ioredis'
import buildUse from '@art-of-coding/use-stream'
import StreamsManager from 'redis-streams-manager'

const blockingConnection = new IORedis()
const manager = new StreamsManager(blockingConnection)
// Build a use function
export const useStream = buildUse(manager)

// somewhere else...

const [events, unsubscribe] = useStream('my-stream')

events.on('entry', (entry: Record<string, string>, id: string) => {
  // do something with the entry
  // and unsubscribe from the stream
  unsubscribe()
})
