Node.js Stream File Copy Examples

This repository contains three different Node.js scripts demonstrating various methods to copy files using streams. Each approach highlights different techniques.

Files Overview

1. index.js

• Description: Manually handles data chunks with flow control and simulated delays.
• Features:
  • Uses readStream.pause() and readStream.resume() to control flow.
  • Adds a 1-second delay after writing each chunk.
  • Includes error handlers for both read and write streams.

2. pipe.js

• Description: Uses readStream.pipe(writeStream) for automatic backpressure handling.
• Features:
  • Simplest implementation.
  • Logs streaming duration on completion.

3. pipeline.js

• Description: Uses stream.pipeline for robust error handling and resource cleanup.
• Features:
  • Simplest implementation with callback.
  • Logs streaming duration on completion
