About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Iterator Stream

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status <!-- dependencies -->

Create a readable stream from an iterator.

## Installation ```bash npm install @stdlib/streams-node-from-iterator ``` Alternatively, - To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]). - If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions). - For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]). The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships. To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
## Usage ```javascript var iteratorStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-from-iterator' ); ``` #### iteratorStream( iterator\[, options] ) Returns a [readable stream][readable-stream] from an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol]. ```javascript var inspectStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ); var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); var iStream; var stream; function log( chunk, idx ) { console.log( chunk.toString() ); if ( idx === 10 ) { stream.destroy(); } } stream = iteratorStream( randu() ); iStream = inspectStream( log ); stream.pipe( iStream ); ``` The function accepts the following `options`: - **objectMode**: specifies whether a [stream][stream] should operate in [objectMode][object-mode]. Default: `false`. - **encoding**: specifies how `Buffer` objects should be decoded to `strings`. Default: `null`. - **highWaterMark**: specifies the maximum number of bytes to store in an internal buffer before pausing iteration. - **sep**: separator used to join streamed data. This option is only applicable when a stream is **not** in [objectMode][object-mode]. Default: `'\n'`. - **serialize**: custom serialization function. This option is only applicable when a stream is **not** in [objectMode][object-mode]. To set [stream][stream] `options`, ```javascript var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); var opts = { 'objectMode': true, 'encoding': 'utf8', 'highWaterMark': 64 }; var stream = iteratorStream( randu(), opts ); ``` By default, when not operating in [objectMode][object-mode], a returned [stream][stream] delineates iterated values using a newline character. To specify an alternative separator, set the `sep` option. ```javascript var inspectStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ); var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); function log( chunk ) { console.log( chunk.toString() ); } var it = randu({ 'iter': 10 }); var stream = iteratorStream( it, { 'sep': ',' }); var iStream = inspectStream( log ); stream.pipe( iStream ); ``` By default, when not operating in [objectMode][object-mode], a returned [stream][stream] serializes iterated values as JSON strings. To specify custom serialization behavior (either to a `string` or `Buffer`), set the `serialize` option. ```javascript var inspectStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ); var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); function serialize( v ) { return 'r::' + v.toString(); } function log( chunk ) { console.log( chunk.toString() ); } var it = randu({ 'iter': 10 }); var stream = iteratorStream( it, { 'serialize': serialize }); var iStream = inspectStream( log ); stream.pipe( iStream ); ``` * * * #### iteratorStream.factory( \[options] ) Returns a `function` for creating [readable streams][readable-stream] from [iterators][mdn-iterator-protocol]. ```javascript var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); var opts = { 'objectMode': true, 'encoding': 'utf8', 'highWaterMark': 64 }; var createStream = iteratorStream.factory( opts ); var stream1 = createStream( randu() ); var stream2 = createStream( randu() ); // ... ``` The method accepts the same `options` as [`iteratorStream()`](#iterator-stream). * * * #### iteratorStream.objectMode( iterator\[, options] ) This method is a convenience function to create [streams][stream] which **always** operate in [objectMode][object-mode]. ```javascript var inspectStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ); var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); function log( v ) { console.log( v ); } var opts = { 'iter': 10 }; var stream = iteratorStream.objectMode( randu( opts ) ); opts = { 'objectMode': true }; var iStream = inspectStream( opts, log ); stream.pipe( iStream ); ``` This method accepts the same `options` as [`iteratorStream()`](#iterator-stream); however, the method will **always** override the [`objectMode`][object-mode] option in `options`.

## Notes - In [`objectMode`][object-mode], `null` is a reserved value. If an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] generates `null` values (e.g., as a means to encode missing values), the stream will prematurely end. Consider an alternative encoding or explicitly map `null` values to a different value by wrapping the provided [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] with another [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol]. - In binary mode, if an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] generates `undefined` values, the stream will emit an error. Consider providing a custom serialization function or explicitly map `undefined` values to a different value by wrapping the provided [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] with another [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol].

## Examples ```javascript var inspectStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-inspect-sink' ); var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' ); var iteratorStream = require( '@stdlib/streams-node-from-iterator' ); function log( v ) { console.log( v.toString() ); } // Create an iterator which generates uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers: var opts = { 'iter': 10 }; var it = randu( opts ); // Convert the iterator to a stream: opts = { 'objectMode': true }; var stream = iteratorStream( it, opts ); // Create a writable stream for inspecting stream data: opts = { 'objectMode': true }; var iStream = inspectStream( opts, log ); // Begin data flow: stream.pipe( iStream ); ```
