pull-stdio NPM version Build Status

Stdio functions for pull streams.

var { stdin, stdout, stderr } = require('pull-stdio')

pull(
  // Source stream for stdin
  stdin(),
  // Sink stream for stdout
  stdout()
)

// Also a sink stream for stderr
pull(
  pull.values(['Error', 'blahlbah']),
  stderr()
)

This module is a simple wrapper around stream-to-pull-stream on the native process.stdio streams. If you have any further ideas for this module feel free to open an issue.

Installation

$ npm install --save pull-stdio
