flow-mock-write

Provides a mock source for writable streams.

Installation

$ npm install flow-mock-write

For use in the browser, use browserify.

Usage

To create a mock for writing to writable streams,

var mock = require( 'flow-mock-write' );

The method accepts two input arguments: an array of values to write and a writable stream.

var eventStream = require( 'event-stream' );

// Simulate some data:
var data = new Array( 100 );

for ( var i = 0; i < data.length; i++ ) {
	data[ i ] = Math.random()*100;
}

// Create a writable stream:
var writable = eventStream.map( function( d, clbk ){
		clbk( null, d.toString()+'\n' );
	});

// Pipe to standard out:
writable.pipe( process.stdout );

// Start streaming...
mock( data, writable );

Examples

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

$ node ./examples/index.js

Notes

The mock implements the classic stream paradigm in Node; e.g., using write() and end() methods.

Tests

Unit

Unit tests use the Mocha test framework with Chai assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

Test Coverage

This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-cov

Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage directory. To access an HTML version of the report,

$ open reports/coverage/lcov-report/index.html
