Stop parsing within on('data') or transform()

[gudmundur]

I am attempting to do simple data validation within a .on('data') callback, and when I bump in to an error, I would like to stop the parsing. I've attempted to throw an error, but it seems that it bubbles up out of the csv package, ie. is not caught and passed on to .on('error').

csv().from('...').on('data', function(data, index) { throw new Error('insufficient data in message'); }).on('error', function(err) { console.log('I never get called :('); });

The stacktrace I am getting is

Error: insufficient data in message
    at [object Object].<anonymous> (/Users/gudmundur/Development/CSharp/Sources/vmkerfi/tools.ssBridge/lib/bridge.coffee:114:35)
    at [object Object].emit (events.js:70:17)
    at write (/Users/gudmundur/Development/CSharp/Sources/vmkerfi/tools.ssBridge/node_modules/csv/lib/csv.js:222:17)

Am I going about this the wrong way or is this an actual issue?

I can stop parsing even if an error is thrown and caught with on('error'). The data event is emitted again and again for each line. How can I stop the parsing.. ?

Could you please send me a sample, I created a test which read a file, and the error isn't thrown again. A sample would help me to fix it.
