Streams2 line reader / stream transformer.
First let me say: I did NOT want to write yet another line reader!
I couldn't find one that is working with node's new Streams2 objects.
The byline module has taken a first stab at it, but it isn't working. (as of 32bf791e38)
So here we are…
fs = require('fs');
eachline = require('eachline');
stream = fs.createReadStream(__dirname+'/.gitignore');
line(stream, function(line){
nsole.log(line);
However, if you're just looking to open a file:
eachline = require('eachline');
line.in(__dirname+'/.gitignore', function(line){
nsole.log(line);
…or if you need a simple http GET:
eachline = require('eachline');
url = 'https://raw.github.com/williamwicks/node-eachline/master/.gitignore';
line.in(url, function(line){
nsole.log(line);
eachline uses Streams2's transformation
feature allowing you to throw eachline between .pipe()s
to modify output as needed.
fs = require('fs');
eachline = require('eachline');
file = fs.createReadStream(__dirname+'/.gitignore');
transformer = eachline(function(data){
turn data.substr(0, 2)+'\n';
.pipe(transformer).pipe(process.stdout);
Use with a pipe() to re-chunk the stream into lines.
Use with pipe() optionally specifying the encoding.
Got that stream ready? Pass it in, get them lines. Easy-peasy.
eachline.in(filepath, callback) Just a helper function to make these simple tasks cleaner.
It returns the Transform stream so you can listen to the events.
linecount = 0;
eachline = require('eachline');
line.in(__dirname+'/.gitignore', function(data){
linecount++;
'finish', function(){
console.log(linecount + " lines found");
callback(data, lineno[ ,next])
The callback arguments above will be called for every line found in the ReadableStream.
It will be passed the data and lineno arguments. You can optionally defined a
3rd argument to get asynchronous flow. eachline examines callback.length to detirmine
if asynchronous flow should be used. If found, you must call next() to continue reading.
For Stream transformations, any value return'd will be written to the next pipe() in the chain.
