* Package name : node-fd-slicer Version : 0.3.2 Upstream Author : Andrew Kelley <superjo...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/andrewrk/node-fd-slicer * License : Expat Programming Lang: JavaScript Description : safely create multiple ReadStreams or WriteStreams from the same fd - Node.js module This module provides an API for creating multiple ReadStreams or WriteStreams from the same file descriptor. . The official Node.js API docs say that it is unsafe to use fs.write multiple times on the same file without waiting for the callback. This module solves this problem. . fd-slicer also provides additional features that builtin fs.createWriteStream is lacking, such as progress events and setting a maximum size to write. . Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine. . An older version of this module is bundled with node-yauzl. However now fd-slicer has a few more features and the new upstream version of node-multiparty depends on it. . I plan to maintain this as part of the pkg-javascript team.
