net-object-stream  Build Status

Turn any binary stream into an object stream, with multiple codec support

Example

'use strict'
 
var net = require('net')
var nos = require('net-object-stream')
var through2 = require('through2')
var pump = require('pump')
 
var server = net.createServer(function (original) {
  var stream = nos(original)
  pump(stream, through2.obj(), stream)
})
 
server.listen(4200, function () {
  var stream = nos(net.connect(4200))
  stream.end({ hello: 'world' })
  stream.on('data', console.log)
  stream.on('end', server.close.bind(server))
})

netObjectStream(stream, [opts])

Wraps stream into a Duplex object stream, recognized opts:

  • codec: an object with a encode and decode method, which will be used to encode messages. Valid encoding libraries are protocol-buffers and msgpack5. The default one is JSON.

netObjectStream.encoder([opts])

Creates an encoder for the netObjectStream protocol, recognized opts:

  • codec: an object with a encode and decode method, which will be used to encode messages. Valid encoding libraries are protocol-buffers and msgpack5. The default one is JSON.

netObjectStream.decoder([opts])

Creates a decoder for the netObjectStream protocol, recognized opts:

  • codec: an object with a encode and decode method, which will be used to encode messages. Valid encoding libraries are protocol-buffers and msgpack5. The default one is JSON.

netObjectStream.parser([opts])

Creates a parser for the netObjectStream protocol, recognized opts:

  • codec: an object with a encode and decode method, which will be used to encode messages. Valid encoding libraries are protocol-buffers and msgpack5. The default one is JSON.

The parser have a parser.parse(buf) function to add data to id. It will emit 'message' events when it is able to parse an object.

netObjectStream.writeToStream(msg, [opts], stream, [callback])

Write msg to the given stream, recognized options:

  • codec: an object with a encode and decode method, which will be used to encode messages. Valid encoding libraries are protocol-buffers and msgpack5. The default one is JSON.
