You can call pipe multiple times on a single readable stream, like this: var reader = createReadableStream(); reader.pipe(createWritableStream(1)); reader.pipe(createWritableStream(2));
which is cool. However, I am implementing a transform stream, and I'd like to be able to do something like this: var transform = createTransformStream(); reader.pipe(transform); transform.multipipe(1, writer1); // NOT the usual pipe; args explained below. transform.multipipe(2, writer2); where the transform stream is smart enough to slow down its input if *either* writer1 or writer2 request to pause (i.e. return false on a call to write()). The notation multipipe(n, <writer>) is meant to indicate that the two writers receive different streams, unlike the usual behavior of pipe in the first example. This is analogous to piping in bash where I have separate output via both stderr and stdout, like this: $ cat afile | ./somebinary > outfile1 &> outfile2 Is there a nice way to support this functionality in the current streams interface? thanks! -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
