pull-file

a pull-streaming file reader, build directly on the low level stream functions.
by passing node's fs streams.



Example Usage

``js
var file = require('pull-file');
var pull = require('pull-stream');
var path = require('path');
var inputFile = path.resolve(__dirname, '../test/assets/ipsum.txt');

pull(
file(inputFile, { bufferSize: 40 }),
pull.take(4),
pull.drain(function(buffer) {
console.log(buffer.toString());
})
);
`


options

this supports all the options that node's fs.createReadStream supports,
and _also_ this supports a live: true property which will keep the stream open and wait for appends
when it gets to the end and an explicit buffer` option where your chunks will be read to.
Note that if your downstream operations are async you may run into concurrency
issues with this option. Use at your own risk!
