unique-stream
node.js through stream that emits a unique stream of objects based on criteria
Installation
Install via npm:
$ npm install unique-stream
Examples
Dedupe a ReadStream based on JSON.stringify:
var unique = require('unique-stream')
, Stream = require('stream');
// return a stream of 3 identical objects
function makeStreamOfObjects() {
var s = new Stream;
s.readable = true;
var count = 3;
for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
setImmediate(function () {
s.emit('data', { name: 'Bob', number: 123 });
--count && end();
});
}
function end() {
s.emit('end');
}
return s;
}
// Will only print out one object as the rest are dupes. (Uses JSON.stringify)
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(unique())
.on('data', console.log);
Dedupe a ReadStream based on an object property:
// Use name as the key field to dedupe on. Will only print one object
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(unique('name'))
.on('data', console.log);
Dedupe a ReadStream based on a custom function:
// Use a custom function to dedupe on. Use the 'number' field. Will only print one object.
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(function (data) {
return data.number;
})
.on('data', console.log);
Dedupe multiple streams
The reason I wrote this was to dedupe multiple object streams:
var aggregator = unique();
// Stream 1
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(aggregator);
// Stream 2
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(aggregator);
// Stream 3
makeStreamOfObjects()
.pipe(aggregator);
aggregator.on('data', console.log);
