# get-stream [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/get-stream.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/get-stream)

> Get a stream as a string, buffer, or array


## Install

```
$ npm install get-stream
```


## Usage

```js
const fs = require('fs');
const getStream = require('get-stream');

(async () => {
	const stream = fs.createReadStream('unicorn.txt');

	console.log(await getStream(stream));
	/*

## API

The methods returns a promise that resolves when the `end` event fires on the stream, indicating that there is no more data to be read. The stream is switched to flowing mode.

### getStream(stream, [options])

Get the `stream` as a string.

#### options

Type: `Object`

##### encoding

Type: `string`<br>
Default: `utf8`

[Encoding](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#buffer_buffer) of the incoming stream.

##### maxBuffer

Type: `number`<br>
Default: `Infinity`

Maximum length of the returned string. If it exceeds this value before the stream ends, the promise will be rejected with a `getStream.MaxBufferError` error.

### getStream.buffer(stream, [options])

Get the `stream` as a buffer.

It honors the `maxBuffer` option as above, but it refers to byte length rather than string length.

### getStream.array(stream, [options])

Get the `stream` as an array of values.

It honors both the `maxBuffer` and `encoding` options. The behavior changes slightly based on the encoding chosen:

- When `encoding` is unset, it assumes an [object mode stream](https://nodesource.com/blog/understanding-object-streams/) and collects values emitted from `stream` unmodified. In this case `maxBuffer` refers to the number of items in the array (not the sum of their sizes).

- When `encoding` is set to `buffer`, it collects an array of buffers. `maxBuffer` refers to the summed byte lengths of every buffer in the array.

- When `encoding` is set to anything else, it collects an array of strings. `maxBuffer` refers to the summed character lengths of every string in the array.


## Errors

If the input stream emits an `error` event, the promise will be rejected with the error. The buffered data will be attached to the `bufferedData` property of the error.

```js
(async () => {
	try {
		await getStream(streamThatErrorsAtTheEnd('unicorn'));
	} catch (error) {
		console.log(error.bufferedData);
		//=> 'unicorn'
	}
})()
```


## FAQ

### How is this different from [`concat-stream`](https://github.com/maxogden/concat-stream)?

This module accepts a stream instead of being one and returns a promise instead of using a callback. The API is simpler and it only supports returning a string, buffer, or array. It doesn't have a fragile type inference. You explicitly choose what you want. And it doesn't depend on the huge `readable-stream` package.
