x/proc/tests/deps/streams.ts>iterateReader

A high-level way to run child processes that is easy, flexible, powerful, and prevents resource leaks.
Go to Latest
function iterateReader
import { iterateReader } from "https://deno.land/x/proc@0.20.17/tests/deps/streams.ts";

Turns a Reader, r, into an async iterator.

import { iterateReader } from "https://deno.land/std@0.224.0/streams/iterate_reader.ts";

let f = await Deno.open("/etc/passwd");
for await (const chunk of iterateReader(f)) {
  console.log(chunk);
}
f.close();

Second argument can be used to tune size of a buffer. Default size of the buffer is 32kB.

import { iterateReader } from "https://deno.land/std@0.224.0/streams/iterate_reader.ts";

let f = await Deno.open("/etc/passwd");
const it = iterateReader(f, {
  bufSize: 1024 * 1024
});
for await (const chunk of it) {
  console.log(chunk);
}
f.close();
