Hi Dhruv,
I created a BufferedStream class that can do what you need (
http://github.com/mjijackson/bufferedstream, thanks Martin for the link!).
I use it mainly for creating mocks of streams in tests. You can instantiate
a new BufferedStream with either a string, Buffer, or even another stream
as its "source". It will let you do something like:
var myStream = new BufferedStream(aBuffer);
myStream.on('data', function (chunk) {
console.log(chunk.toString());
});
myStream.on('end', function () {
console.log('done');
});
Another common use case is for generating streams of data that serve
long-running HTTP requests. In these cases you can just instantiate a new
BufferedStream without any source at all and write to it just like any
other stream.
var myStream = new BufferedStream;
myStream.write(aBuffer);
myStream.write('a string');
myStream.end();
