Consume a stream to ensure it keeps flowing
npm install stream-consumeA node module ensures a Readable stream continues flowing if it's not piped to
another destination.
npm install stream-consume
Simply pass a stream to stream-consume.
Both legacy streams and streams2 are supported.
`` js
var consume = require('stream-consume');
consume(readableStream);
`
Only Readable streams are processed (as determined by presence of readable
property and a property that is a function). If called with anything
else, it's a NOP.
For a streams2 stream (as determined by presence of a _readableState
property), nothing is done if the stream has already been piped to at least
one other destination.
resume()` is used to cause the stream to continue flowing.
