NPM

Installation

npm install significant-stream

Example

Input

var stream1 = require('./significant-stream')()
  , stream2 = require('./significant-stream')({ key: 'foo' })
  , stream3 = require('./significant-stream')({ cache: { max: 100 } }) // LRU cache options

stream1.on('data', function (row) { console.log('data from stream1', row) })

console.log('stream1 will only ouput the second string, since the diff between them is an append')
stream1.write('Hello')
stream1.write('Hello, world!')
stream1.end()

console.log('stream2 has similar behaviour as stream1, but it is an object')
stream2.on('data', function (obj) { console.log('data from stream2', obj) })
stream2.write({ foo: 'Yeah', bar: 'beep' })
stream2.write({ foo: 'Oh, Yeah', bar: 'boop' })
stream2.end()

console.log('stream3 has same behaviour as stream1, but uses lru-cache for diff')
stream1.on('data', function (row) { console.log('data from stream3', row) })
stream1.write('Hello')
stream1.write('Hello, world!')
stream1.end()

Output

stream1 will only ouput the second string, since the diff between them is an append
data from stream1 Hello, world!
stream2 has similar behaviour as stream1, but it is an object
data from stream2 { foo: 'Oh, Yeah', bar: 'boop' }
stream3 has same behaviour as stream1, but uses lru-cache for diff
data from stream3 Hello, world!
