Destroy
Destroy a stream.
This module is meant to ensure a stream gets destroyed, handling different APIs and Node.js bugs.
API
destroy(stream)
Destroy the given stream. In most cases, this is identical to a simple stream.destroy()
call. The rules are as follows for a given stream:
If the
stream
is an instance ofReadStream
, then callstream.destroy()
and add a listener to theopen
event to callstream.close()
if it is fired. This is for a Node.js bug that will leak a file descriptor if.destroy()
is called beforeopen
.If the
stream
is not an instance ofStream
, then nothing happens.If the
stream
has a.destroy()
method, then call it.
The function returns the stream
passed in as the argument.
