pull-stream version of fs.createWriteStream
currently really simple and does not yet support all fs.createWriteStream options yet.
var Write = require('pull-write-stream')
pull(
source, //must be buffers (sorry, strings not working yet!)
Write(pathToFile, {}, function (err) {
//callback is called once write is complete,
//and file descriptor is closed
})
)For large buffers this is currently as fast as node's streams,
but for lots of small buffers it's a little less.
Node uses the fs binding's writev to pass many buffers to the kernel simutaniously.
TODO: benchmarks with graphs comparing node streams and pull streams.
