packrat

Stream files (i.e. logs) over MQTT

How to use

Install

npm install ableat-packrat --save

Initialize

Tip: There's a working example in the docs directory.

const PackRat = require('ableat-packrat')

const paths = [
    '/path/to/file'
]

const packrat = new PackRat(paths, 12)

packrat.init((err, obj) => {
    if (err) {
        console.log(err, err.stack)
        return
    }
    
    console.log(JSON.stringify(obj))
})

In this example obj is expected to return:

{
  "properties": {
    "path": "/path/to/file",
    "time": 1519324145
  },
  "data": [
    "We're no strangers to love",
    "You know the rules and so do I",
    "A full commitment's what I'm thinking of",
    "You wouldn't get this from any other guy",
    "I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling",
    "Gotta make you understand",
    "Never gonna give you up",
    "Never gonna let you down",
    "Never gonna run around and desert you",
    "Never gonna make you cry",
    "Never gonna say goodbye",
    "Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you"
  ]
}
