# Split2(matcher, mapper, options)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Break up a stream and reassemble it so that each line is a chunk.
|
|
`split2` is inspired by [@dominictarr](https://github.com/dominictarr) [`split`](https://github.com/dominictarr/split) module,
|
|
and it is totally API compatible with it.
|
|
However, it is based on Node.js core [`Transform`](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_new_stream_transform_options).
|
|
|
|
`matcher` may be a `String`, or a `RegExp`. Example, read every line in a file ...
|
|
|
|
``` js
|
|
fs.createReadStream(file)
|
|
.pipe(split2())
|
|
.on('data', function (line) {
|
|
//each chunk now is a separate line!
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`split` takes the same arguments as `string.split` except it defaults to '/\r?\n/', and the optional `limit` paremeter is ignored.
|
|
[String#split](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/split)
|
|
|
|
`split` takes an optional options object on it's third argument, which
|
|
is directly passed as a
|
|
[Transform](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_new_stream_transform_options)
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the `.maxLength` and `.skipOverflow` options are implemented, which set limits on the internal
|
|
buffer size and the stream's behavior when the limit is exceeded. There is no limit unless `maxLength` is set. When
|
|
the internal buffer size exceeds `maxLength`, the stream emits an error by default. You may also set `skipOverflow` to
|
|
true to suppress the error and instead skip past any lines that cause the internal buffer to exceed `maxLength`.
|
|
|
|
Calling `.destroy` will make the stream emit `close`. Use this to perform cleanup logic
|
|
|
|
``` js
|
|
var splitFile = function(filename) {
|
|
var file = fs.createReadStream(filename)
|
|
|
|
return file
|
|
.pipe(split2())
|
|
.on('close', function() {
|
|
// destroy the file stream in case the split stream was destroyed
|
|
file.destroy()
|
|
})
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
var stream = splitFile('my-file.txt')
|
|
|
|
stream.destroy() // will destroy the input file stream
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# NDJ - Newline Delimited Json
|
|
|
|
`split2` accepts a function which transforms each line.
|
|
|
|
``` js
|
|
fs.createReadStream(file)
|
|
.pipe(split2(JSON.parse))
|
|
.on('data', function (obj) {
|
|
//each chunk now is a js object
|
|
})
|
|
.on("error", function(error) {
|
|
//handling parsing errors
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
However, in [@dominictarr](https://github.com/dominictarr) [`split`](https://github.com/dominictarr/split) the mapper
|
|
is wrapped in a try-catch, while here it is not: if your parsing logic can throw, wrap it yourself. Otherwise, you can also use the stream error handling when mapper function throw.
