ReadableStream.pipeTo() - Web APIs 编辑

Experimental

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The pipeTo() method of the ReadableStream interface pipes the current ReadableStream to a given WritableStream and returns a promise that fulfills when the piping process completes successfully, or rejects if any errors were encountered.

Piping a stream will generally lock it for the duration of the pipe, preventing other readers from locking it.

Syntax

var promise = readableStream.pipeTo(destination[, options]);

Parameters

destination

A WritableStream that acts as the final destination for the ReadableStream.

options Optional

The options that should be used when piping to the writable stream. Available options are:

1. preventClose: If this is set to true, the source ReadableStream closing will no longer cause the destination WritableStream to be closed. The method will return a fulfilled promise once this process completes, unless an error is encountered while closing the destination in which case it will be rejected with that error.
2. preventAbort: If this is set to true, errors in the source ReadableStream will no longer abort the destination WritableStream. The method will return a promise rejected with the source’s error, or with any error that occurs during aborting the destination.
3. preventCancel: If this is set to true, errors in the destination WritableStream will no longer cancel the source ReadableStream. In this case the method will return a promise rejected with the source’s error, or with any error that occurs during canceling the source. In addition, if the destination writable stream starts out closed or closing, the source readable stream will no longer be canceled. In this case the method will return a promise rejected with an error indicating piping to a closed stream failed, or with any error that occurs during canceling the source.
4. signal: If set to an AbortSignal object, ongoing pipe operations can then be aborted via the corresponding AbortController.

Return value

A Promise that resolves when the piping process has completed.

Exceptions

TypeError

The writableStream and/or readableStream objects are not a writable stream/readable stream, or one or both of the streams are locked.

Examples

// Fetch the original image
fetch('png-logo.png')
// Retrieve its body as ReadableStream
.then(response => response.body)
.then(body => body.pipeThrough(new PNGTransformStream()))
.then(rs => rs.pipeTo(new FinalDestinationStream()))
