node_streams VS readable-stream

You can find the example source code here: Github Repo

If it's a readable stream, you can just directly consume it with an async iterator: https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#streams-compatibility-wit...

Node.js Stream

Note that the older Node.js streams API hasn't been deprecated or removed. It will co-exist with the new API, and it even provides a way to convert from a web stream and vice versa using the .fromWeb() and .toWeb() methods (both added in Node 17, although both methods still retain their experimental status).

Nodejs has piepes with its stream https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html

You then want what's invoked by that event to be consumed as a Response. NodeJS has something to replicate this with stream consumers where you can do all the response.text() you normally do.

First, we create a NodeJS ReadStream using fs.createWriteStream to open the test.log file in "append" mode. Then we start recursively looping using setTimeout. This simulates an application that logs text in the file at a variable rate. At each iteration:

This needs a comparison with streams, which is the standard way to achieve this in Node.js land.
