Hi,
I want to use mikeal's request to stream down large resources from the web.
I want to determine automatically the file type csv/json/xml and if it's
compressed so i can stream it down to the correct handler.
Something like this:
var input = request(<url>);
var output1 = *(input is gzipped)* ? input.pipe(<gzip inflator>) : input;
var output2 =* (output1 is xml)* ? output1.pipe(<xml processor>) :
*(output1 is json)* ? output1.pipe(<json
processor>) :
* (output1 is csv)* ?
output1.pipe(<csv processor>): output1 ;
output2.pipe(<whatever>);
The code has flows as `pipe` doesn't return a readable stream, but you get
the picture.
Is there any way to determine the bolded conditionals?
Thanks,
Alex
