# split-array-stream
> Safely push each item of an array to a stream.

```sh
$ npm install --save split-array-stream
```
```js
var split = require('split-array-stream');
var through = require('through2');

var array = [
  { id: 1, user: 'Dave' },
  { id: 2, user: 'Stephen' }
];

var stream = through.obj();

stream.on('data', function (item) {
  // { id: 1, user: 'Dave' }
  // ...later...
  // { id: 2, user: 'Stephen' }
});

split(array, stream, function (streamEnded) {
  if (!streamEnded) {
    stream.push(null);
    stream.end();
  }
});
```

Before pushing an item to the stream, `split-array-stream` checks that the stream hasn't been ended. This avoids those "push() after EOF" errors.

### Use case

Say you're getting many items from an upstream API. Multiple requests might be required to page through all of the results. You want to push the results to the stream as they come in, and only get more results if the user hasn't ended the stream.

```js
function getAllUsers() {
  var stream = through.obj();

  var requestOptions = {
    method: 'get',
    url: 'http://api/users',
  };

  request(requestOptions, onResponse);

  function onResponse(err, response) {
    split(response.users, stream, function (streamEnded) {
      if (streamEnded) {
        return;
      }

      if (response.nextPageToken) {
        requestOptions.pageToken = response.nextPageToken;
        request(requestOptions, onResponse);
        return;
      }

      stream.push(null);
      stream.end();
    });

  });

  return stream;
}

getAllUsers()
  .on('data', function (user) {
    // An item from the `response.users` API response
  })
  .on('end', function () {
    // All users received
  });
```
