MemoryWrapper

MemoryWrapper

An in-memory ObjectStreamWrapper backed by a plain array. For tests, small data, and benchmarking the sort algorithms independently of disk.

import {MemoryWrapper} from 'stream-sorting';
import sort from 'stream-sorting/sort.js';

const sorted = sort(input, {
  compare: (a, b) => a - b,
  batchSize: 1000,
  createWrapper: () => new MemoryWrapper()
});

new MemoryWrapper() takes no arguments. Each instance holds one run's worth of items, so pass a fresh one per run via createWrapper (for sort) or as the entries of files (for polyphaseSort).
