pipeasync v0.1.0

Introduction

The pipe method in Node.js is pretty convenient to use. But it is based on events. To use it along with async function, you need to listen to specific events and do some wraps to return a Promise Object.

This package provide a function that wraps necessary things, you only need to know the stop event.

For normal file, the stop event is 'finish'. For unzip, the stop event is 'close'.

e.g.

async function test() {
  const a = fs.createReadStream('a.txt')
  const b = fs.createWriteStream('b.txt')
  await pipeasync(a, b, 'finish')

  const c = fs.createReadStream('c.zip')
  const d = unzip.Extract({ path: './d' })
  await pipeasync(c, d, 'close')
}
