# first-chunk-stream
> Buffer and transform the n first bytes of a stream
## Install
```sh
npm install first-chunk-stream
```
## Usage
```js
import fs from 'node:fs';
import getStream from 'get-stream';
import FirstChunkStream from 'first-chunk-stream';
import {uint8ArrayToString} from 'uint8array-extras';
// unicorn.txt => unicorn rainbow
const stream = fs.createReadStream('unicorn.txt')
.pipe(new FirstChunkStream({chunkSize: 7}, async (chunk, encoding) => {
return uint8ArrayToString(chunk).toUpperCase();
}));
const data = await getStream(stream);
if (data.length < 7) {
throw new Error('Couldn\'t get the minimum required first chunk length');
}
console.log(data);
//=> 'UNICORN rainbow'
```
## API
### FirstChunkStream(options, transform)
`FirstChunkStream` constructor.
#### transform(chunk, encoding)
Type: `Function`
Async function that receives the required `options.chunkSize` bytes.
Expected to return an buffer-like object or `string` or object of form {buffer: `Uint8Array`, encoding: `string`} to send to stream or `firstChunkStream.stop` to end stream right away.
An error thrown from this function will be emitted as stream errors.
Note that the buffer can have a smaller length than the required one. In that case, it will be due to the fact that the complete stream contents has a length less than the `options.chunkSize` value. You should check for this yourself if you strictly depend on the length.
```js
import FirstChunkStream from 'first-chunk-stream';
new FirstChunkStream({chunkSize: 7}, async (chunk, encoding) => {
return chunk; // Send buffer to stream
});
new FirstChunkStream({chunkSize: 7}, async (chunk, encoding) => {
return {
buffer: chunk,
encoding: encoding,
}; // Send buffer with encoding to stream
});
new FirstChunkStream({chunkSize: 7}, async (chunk, encoding) => {
return FirstChunkStream.stop; // End the stream early
});
new FirstChunkStream({chunkSize: 7}, async (chunk, encoding) => {
throw new Error('Unconditional error'); // Emit stream error
});
```
#### options
Type: `object`
The options object is passed to the [`Duplex` stream](https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_class_stream_duplex) constructor allowing you to customize your stream behavior. In addition, you can specify the following option:
###### chunkSize
Type: `number`
The number of bytes to buffer.
