# stream-exhaust

Ensure that the provided stream is flowing data, even if the stream hasn't been
piped to another stream.

```javascript
var exhaustively = require('stream-exhaust');

exhaustively(fs.createReadStream(__filename))
  .on('close', () => { console.log('all done, despite being streams{1+N}!') });
```

## Prior Art

This is based on [stream-consume](https://github.com/aroneous/stream-consume)
by [aroneous](https://github.com/aroneous). It is a separate package because it has
different semantics:

1. It does not call `.resume()` on streams2+ streams. streams2 streams monkeypatch `.pipe`
when entering flowing mode; avoiding `resume()` avoids that fate.
2. It does not examine `._readableState`; instead it checks for the presence of `._read`.

## API

### exhaust(Stream s) -> Stream s

Takes a stream, `s`, and returns it. Ensures that the stream is flowing, either by calling
`.resume()` if the stream is a streams1 stream, or by piping it to a "black hole" stream that
continually asks for more data.
