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.
SyntaxpipeTo(destination)
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:
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.
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.
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.
signal
If set to an AbortSignal
object, ongoing pipe operations can then be aborted via the corresponding AbortController
.
A Promise
that resolves when the piping process has completed.
TypeError
The writableStream
and/or readableStream
objects are not a writable stream/readable stream, or one or both of the streams are locked.
// 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()));
The same example, but using await
:
(async () => {
// Fetch the original image
const response = await fetch("png-logo.png");
// Retrieve its body as ReadableStream
await response.body
.pipeThrough(new PNGTransformStream())
.pipeTo(new FinalDestinationStream());
})();
