asset-pipe-js-reader

Greenkeeper badge

This is an internal module intended for use by other modules in the asset-pipe project.

This module can take one or multiple asset feed stream(s), as produced by the asset-pipe-js-writer, and produced an executable javascript bundle for the browser.

Data format

What we refere to as an asset feed is the internal data format used in Browserify. We use the exact same data format as Browserify in the asset-pipe project.

When Browserify resolves CommonJS modules each dependency will be read and transformed into an object which looks something like this:

{
    "id":"c645cf572a8f5acf8716e4846b408d3b1ca45c58",
    "source":"\"use strict\";module.exports.world=function(){return\"world\"};",
    "deps":{},
    "file":"./assets/js/bar.js"
}

Each such object is emitted on a stream for each dependency. This is the asset feed.

Installation

$ npm install asset-pipe-js-reader

Usage

Make an JavaScript bundle out of two asset feeds stored on a filesystem:

const Reader = require('asset-pipe-js-reader');
const SinkFs = require('asset-pipe-sink-fs');
 
const sink = new SinkFs({
    path: './assets'
});
 
const feedA = sink.reader('a.json');
const feedB = sink.reader('b.json');
 
const reader = new Reader([feedA, feedB]);
reader.on('pipeline ready', () => {
    reader.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('./build/browser.bundle.js'));
});

API

This module have the following API:

constructor(streams)

Supported arguments are:

  • streams - Array - An Array of file reader streams. Must be from one of the asset pipe sinks.

Returns a Transform stream.

Events:

This module emit the following events:

  • error - When an error occured in the pipeline. Emits with: error.
  • file found - When a file we want to read is found. Emits with: file.
  • file not saved - When a file we want to read is not found. Emits with: file.
  • pipeline ready - When the pipeline is ready to start bundling asset feeds.
  • pipeline empty - When the pipeline is empty. Iow; it could not load any of the files its supposed to read so there it nothing to produce.
