[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Downloads][downloads-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][ci-image]][ci-url] [![Coveralls Status][coveralls-image]][coveralls-url]

Remove a UTF8 BOM at the start of the stream.

## Usage

```js
var fs = require('fs');
var concat = require('concat-stream');
var removeBOM = require('remove-bom-stream');

fs.createReadStream('utf8-file-with-bom.txt')
.pipe(removeBOM('utf-8'))
.pipe(
concat(function (result) {
// result won't have a BOM
})
);
```

## API

### `removeBOM(encoding)`

Returns a `Transform` stream that will remove a BOM, if the argument `encoding` is `'utf-8'` and the given data is a UTF8 Buffer with a BOM at the beginning. If the `encoding` is not `'utf-8'` or does not have a BOM, the data is not changed and this becomes a no-op `Transform` stream.
