Readable Streams: Simplified Construction and Iterables
Learn how to implement simple custom streams using the simplified construction approach.
We'll cover the following
Simplified construction
For simple custom streams, we can avoid creating a custom class by using the Readable
stream’s simplified construction approach. With this approach, we only need to invoke new
Readable(options)
and pass a method named read()
in the set of options. The read()
method here has exactly the same semantic as the _read()
method that we saw in the class extension approach. Let's rewrite our RandomStream
using the simplified constructor approach.
