API
var toArray = require('stream-to-array')
var stream = fs.createReadStream('some file.txt')
toArray([stream], [callback(err, arr)])
Returns all the data objects in an array. This is useful for streams in object mode if you want to just use an array.
streamTo.array(stream, function (err, arr) {
assert.ok(Array.isArray(arr))
})
If stream is not defined, it is assumed that this is a stream.
var stream = new Stream.Readable()
stream.toArray = toArray
stream.toArray(function (err, arr) {
})
If callback is not defined, then it is assumed that it is being yielded within a generator.
function* () {
var stream = new Stream.Readable()
stream.toArray = toArray
var arr = yield stream.toArray()
}
If you want to return a buffer, just use Buffer.concat(arr)
var stream = new Stream.Readable()
var arr = yield toArray(stream)
var buffer = Buffer.concat(arr)
