trough
trough /trôf/ — a channel used to convey a liquid.
trough is like ware
with less sugar, and middleware
functions can change the input of the next.
Installation
npm:
npm install trough
Usage
var fs = require('fs');
var path = require('path');
var trough = require('trough');
var pipeline = trough()
.use(function (fileName) {
console.log('Checking... ' + fileName);
})
.use(function (fileName) {
return path.join(process.cwd(), fileName);
})
.use(function (filePath, next) {
fs.stat(filePath, function (err, stats) {
next(err, {filePath: filePath, stats: stats});
});
})
.use(function (ctx, next) {
if (ctx.stats.isFile()) {
fs.readFile(ctx.filePath, next);
} else {
next(new Error('Expected file'));
}
});
pipeline.run('readme.md', console.log);
pipeline.run('node_modules', console.log);
Yields:
Checking... readme.md
Checking... node_modules

trough()
Create a new Trough
.
Trough
A pipeline.
Trough#run([input..., ]done)
Run the pipeline (all use()
d middleware). Invokes done
on completion with either an error or the output of the last middleware
Note! as the length of input defines whether async function get a
next
function, it’s recommended to keepinput
at one value normally.
function done(err?, [output...])
The final handler passed to run()
, invoked with an error
if a middleware function rejected, passed, or threw one, or
the output of the last middleware function.
Trough#use(fn)
Add fn
, a middleware function, to the pipeline.
function fn([input..., ][next])
A middleware function invoked with the output of its predecessor.
Synchronous
If fn
returns or throws an error, the pipeline fails and done
is
invoked with that error.
If fn
returns a value (neither null
nor undefined
), the first
input
of the next function is set to that value (all other input
is passed through).
Example
The following example shows how returning an error stops the pipeline:
var trough = require('trough');
trough().use(function (val) {
return new Error('Got: ' + val);
}).run('some value', console.log);
Yields:
Error: Got: some value
at ~example.js:6:10
...
The following example shows how throwing an error stops the pipeline:
var trough = require('trough');
trough().use(function (val) {
throw new Error('Got: ' + val);
}).run('more value', console.log);
Yields:
Error: Got: more value
at ~example.js:6:10
...
The following example shows how the first output can be modified:
var trough = require('trough');
trough().use(function (val) {
return 'even ' + val;
}).run('more value', 'untouched', console.log);
Yields:
null 'even more value' 'untouched'
Promise
If fn
returns a promise, and that promise rejects, the pipeline fails
and done
is invoked with the rejected value.
If fn
returns a promise, and that promise resolves with a value
(neither null
nor undefined
), the first input
of the next function
is set to that value (all other input
is passed through).
Example
The following example shows how rejecting a promise stops the pipeline:
trough().use(function (val) {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
reject('Got: ' + val);
});
}).run('val', console.log);
Yields:
Got: val
The following example shows how the input isn’t touched by resolving
to null
.
trough().use(function (val) {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
setTimeout(function () { resolve(null); }, 100);
});
}).run('Input', console.log);
Yields:
null 'Input'
Asynchronous
If fn
accepts one more argument than the given input
, a next
function is given (after the input). next
must be called, but doesn’t
have to be called async.
If next
is given a a value (neither null
nor undefined
) as its first
argument, the pipeline fails and done
is invoked with that value.
If next
is given no value (either null
or undefined
) as the first
argument, all following non-nully values change the input of the following
function, and all nully values default to the input
.
Example
The following example shows how passing a first argument stops the pipeline:
trough().use(function (val, next) {
next(new Error('Got: ' + val));
}).run('val', console.log);
Yields:
Error: Got: val
at ~/example.js:6:8
The following example shows how more values than the input are passed.
trough().use(function (val, next) {
setTimeout(function () {
next(null, null, 'values');
}, 100);
}).run('some', console.log);
Yields:
null 'some' 'values'
