chunknlines

Node.js n-lines chunker stream module ##What it does This stream helps you create chunks from an input. It's very useful when dealing with big files.

This module takes text in input and sends in output chunk made by n-lines. Where n is the only argument that it needs, but it can be omitted. Simple.

##Usage var chunknlines = require('chunknlines');

stream.pipe(chunknlines([NLINES]).pipe(anotherstream);

#####Argument:

  • NLINES: the number of lines in a single chunk (default = 1)

##Example The example code below, echoes what we write on standard input every 3 new lines.

var chunknlines 	= 	require('chunknlines');

process.stdin.pipe(chunknlines(3)).pipe(process.stdout);
