#Stream-pkg

Stream-pkg is a simple tool for packages that transfered on stream-based API. As we known, stream API is a good thing of Node.js and we could compose different applications by stream-based API conventionally. But package may be splited into small chunks when it transfered on stream-based API such as socket. We have to recompose the chunks into package when we receive them. And stream-pkg could do it for you.

##Installation

npm install stream-pkg

##Usage

var Composer = require('stream-pkg');

var src = 'Hello world.';
var comp = new Composer();
// package to data
var res = comp.compose(src);

// data to package
comp.on('data', function(data) {
	var str = data.toString('utf-8');
	str.should.equal(src);
	done();
});
comp.feed(res);

##API ###composer.compose(pkg) Compose package into byte data. ####Arguments
