# sonic-boom [](https://travis-ci.org/mcollina/sonic-boom)
|
||
|
||
Extremely fast utf8-only stream implementation to write to files and
|
||
file descriptors.
|
||
|
||
This implementation is partial, but support backpressure and `.pipe()` in is here.
|
||
However, it is 2-3x faster than Node Core `fs.createWriteStream()`:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
benchSonic*1000: 2215.220ms
|
||
benchSonicSync*1000: 8315.173ms
|
||
benchSonic4k*1000: 2184.558ms
|
||
benchSonicSync4k*1000: 1733.582ms
|
||
benchCore*1000: 6513.752ms
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Note that sync mode without buffering is _slower_ than a Node Core WritableStream, however
|
||
this mode matches the expected behavior of `console.log()`.
|
||
|
||
Note that if this is used to log to a windows terminal (`cmd.exe` or
|
||
powershell), it is needed to run `chcp 65001` in the terminal to
|
||
correctly display utf-8 characters, see
|
||
[chcp](https://ss64.com/nt/chcp.html) for more details.
|
||
|
||
## Install
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
npm i sonic-boom
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Example
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
'use strict'
|
||
|
||
const SonicBoom = require('sonic-boom')
|
||
const sonic = new SonicBoom(process.stdout.fd) // or '/path/to/destination'
|
||
|
||
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
|
||
sonic.write('hello sonic\n')
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## API
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom(String|Number, [minLength], [sync])
|
||
|
||
Creates a new instance of SonicBoom.
|
||
|
||
The first argument can be:
|
||
|
||
1. a string that is a path to a file to be written to (mode `'a'`)
|
||
2. a file descriptor, something that is returned by `fs.open` or
|
||
`fs.openSync`.
|
||
|
||
The second argument is the minimum length of the internal buffer that is
|
||
required before flushing.
|
||
|
||
The third argument is a flag that, when true, causes `SonicBoom` to perform synchronous writes.
|
||
|
||
It will emit the `'ready'` event when a file descriptor is available.
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom#write(string)
|
||
|
||
Writes the string to the file.
|
||
It will return false to signal the producer to slow down.
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom#flush()
|
||
|
||
Writes the current buffer to the file if a write was not in progress.
|
||
Do nothing if `minLength` is zero or if it is already writing.
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom#reopen([file])
|
||
|
||
Reopen the file in place, useful for log rotation.
|
||
|
||
Example:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
const stream = new SonicBoom('./my.log')
|
||
process.on('SIGUSR2', function () {
|
||
stream.reopen()
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom#flushSync()
|
||
|
||
Flushes the buffered data synchronously. This is a costly operation.
|
||
|
||
### SonicBoom#end()
|
||
|
||
Closes the stream, the data will be flushed down asynchronously
|
||
|
||
### SonicBook#destroy()
|
||
|
||
Closes the stream immediately, the data is not flushed.
