method promises.FileHandle.readableWebStream
Unstable
Usage in Deno
import { type promises } from "node:fs";
FileHandle.readableWebStream(options?: ReadableWebStreamOptions): ReadableStream
Returns a ReadableStream
that may be used to read the files data.
An error will be thrown if this method is called more than once or is called
after the FileHandle
is closed or closing.
import {
open,
} from 'node:fs/promises';
const file = await open('./some/file/to/read');
for await (const chunk of file.readableWebStream())
console.log(chunk);
await file.close();
While the ReadableStream
will read the file to completion, it will not
close the FileHandle
automatically. User code must still call thefileHandle.close()
method.
