In most cases, this is identical to a simple +`stream.destroy()` call. The rules are as follows for a given stream: + + 1. If the `stream` is an instance of `ReadStream`, then call `stream.destroy()` + and add a listener to the `open` event to call `stream.close()` if it is + fired. This is for a Node.js bug that will leak a file descriptor if + `.destroy()` is called before `open`. + 2. If the `stream` is not an instance of `Stream`, then nothing happens. + 3. If the `stream` has a `.destroy()` method, then call it. + +The function returns the `stream` passed in as the argument. + +## Example + +```js +var destroy = require('destroy') + +var fs = require('fs') +var stream = fs.createReadStream('package.json') + +// ... and later +destroy(stream) +``` + +[npm-image]: https://img.shields.io/npm/v/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[npm-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/destroy +[github-tag]: http://img.shields.io/github/tag/stream-utils/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[github-url]: https://github.com/stream-utils/destroy/tags +[travis-image]: https://img.shields.io/travis/stream-utils/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[travis-url]: https://travis-ci.org/stream-utils/destroy +[coveralls-image]: https://img.shields.io/coveralls/stream-utils/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[coveralls-url]: https://coveralls.io/r/stream-utils/destroy?branch=master +[license-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/l/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[license-url]: LICENSE.md +[downloads-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/dm/destroy.svg?style=flat-square +[downloads-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/destroy +[gittip-image]: https://img.shields.io/gittip/jonathanong.svg?style=flat-square +[gittip-url]: https://www.gittip.com/jonathanong/ |
