# first-chunk-stream [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/first-chunk-stream)
|
|
|
|
> Transform the first chunk in a stream
|
|
|
|
Useful if you want to do something to the first chunk.
|
|
|
|
You can also set the minimum size of that chunk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ npm install --save first-chunk-stream
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var fs = require('fs');
|
|
var concat = require('concat-stream');
|
|
var firstChunk = require('first-chunk-stream');
|
|
|
|
// unicorn.txt => unicorn rainbow
|
|
// `highWaterMark: 1` means it will only read 1 byte at the time
|
|
fs.createReadStream('unicorn.txt', {highWaterMark: 1})
|
|
.pipe(firstChunk({minSize: 7}, function (chunk, enc, cb) {
|
|
this.push(chunk.toUpperCase());
|
|
cb();
|
|
}))
|
|
.pipe(concat(function (data) {
|
|
console.log(data);
|
|
//=> UNICORN rainbow
|
|
}));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
### firstChunk([options], transform)
|
|
|
|
#### options.minSize
|
|
|
|
Type: `number`
|
|
|
|
The minimum size of the first chunk.
|
|
|
|
#### transform(chunk, encoding, callback)
|
|
|
|
*Required*
|
|
Type: `function`
|
|
|
|
The [function](http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/stream.html#stream_transform_transform_chunk_encoding_callback) that gets the first chunk.
|
|
|
|
### firstChunk.ctor()
|
|
|
|
Instead of returning a [stream.Transform](http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/stream.html#stream_class_stream_transform_1) instance, `firstChunk.ctor()` returns a constructor for a custom Transform. This is useful when you want to use the same transform logic in multiple instances.
