Question - Is there any way to use .pipe() in NodeJS with prettyjson

[paulwehner]

So for example could I do something like:

var file = fs.createReadStream('dogs.json');
file.pipe(prettyjson.render).pipe(response);

Using streams is not currently supported, as prettyjson decodes the whole JSON data at once.

Something similar to reading the process stdin could be done for streams.

I guess this is related to support stdin output that is separated by newlines (such as JSONStream.stringify(false))?

Would be a great feature :-)

A current workaround using the JSONStream package: JSONStream < data.njs | prettyjson.
