hyperdrive-prefix

prefix a hyperdrive archive with a path

example

var hyperdrive = require('hyperdrive')
var memdb = require('memdb')
var collect = require('collect-stream')
var prefix = require('../')

var drive = hyperdrive(memdb())
var archive = drive.createArchive()

var dir1 = prefix('dir1', archive)
dir1.createFileWriteStream('hello.txt').end('BEEP BOOP\n')
dir1.createFileWriteStream('whatever.txt').end('hey\n')

var dir2 = prefix('dir2', archive)
dir2.createFileWriteStream('hello.txt').end('EHLO WORLD\n')

archive.finalize(function () {
  collect(dir1.list(), function (err, files) {
    show('DIR1/', files)
  })
  collect(dir2.list(), function (err, files) {
    show('DIR2/', files)
  })
  collect(archive.list(), function (err, files) {
    show('LIST', files)
  })
  function show (msg, files) {
    console.log(msg)
    files.forEach(function (file) { console.log('  ' + file.name) })
  }
})

prints:

LIST
  dir1/hello.txt
  dir1/whatever.txt
  dir2/hello.txt
DIR1/
  hello.txt
  whatever.txt
DIR2/
  hello.txt

api

var prefix = require('hyperdrive-prefix')

var subarchive = prefix(str)

var subarchive = prefix(str, archive)

Create a subarchive of archive where paths are transparently prefixed with a string str for writing and the prefix is transparently removed when listing files.

The subarchive has many of the same methods as archive except for subarchive.finalize() which you should perform on the archive instance directly.
