This module uses pull-streams
We expose a streaming interface based on pull-streams, rather then on the Node.js core streams implementation (aka Node.js streams). pull-streams offers us a better mechanism for error handling and flow control guarantees.
You can learn more about pull-streams at:
- The history of Node.js streams, nodebp April 2014
- The history of streams, 2016
- pull-streams, the simple streaming primitive
- pull-streams documentation
Converting pull-streams to Node.js Streams
If you are a Node.js streams user, you can convert a pull-stream to a Node.js stream using the module pull-stream-to-stream, giving you an instance of a Node.js stream that is linked to the pull-stream. For example:
const pullToStream = require('pull-stream-to-stream')
const nodeStreamInstance = pullToStream(pullStreamInstance)
// nodeStreamInstance is an instance of a Node.js StreamTo learn more about this utility, visit https://pull-stream.github.io/#pull-stream-to-stream.
