Stream doesn't close when giving empty array

[amishas157]

Following is the code snippet I am running:

'use strict';
const streamifyArray = require('streamify-array');

let stream = streamifyArray([]);
stream.on('end', () => console.log('Done!'))

When streamifying an empty array, the stream never encounters the end handler. But on adding data handler as below, it encounters the stream end handler.

'use strict';
const streamifyArray = require('streamify-array');

let stream = streamifyArray([]);
stream.on('data', () => {});
stream.on('end', () => console.log('Done!'));

I am not sure why it needs data handler in to reach the end handler. @rubensworks ,can you help me with this?

This is intended stream behaviour, more information: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20996762/why-does-node-js-http-doesnt-call-the-end-event-when-there-is-no-data-listener

Note that the end event will not fire unless the data is completely consumed. This can be done by switching into flowing mode, or by calling read() repeatedly until you get to the end.
