through2-concurrent
===================
[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/through2-concurrent.png?downloads&downloadRank)](https://nodei.co/npm/through2-concurrent/)
A simple way to create a Node.JS Transform stream which processes in
parallel. You can limit the concurrency (default is 16) and order is
*not* preserved (so chunks/objects can end up in a different order to
the order they started in if the transform functions take different
amounts of time).
Built using [through2](https://github.com/rvagg/through2) and has the
same API with the addition of a `maxConcurrency` option.
Non-`objectMode` streams are supported for completeness but I'm not
sure they'd be useful for anything.

Install
-------
```bash
npm install --save through2-concurrent
```
Examples
--------
Process lines from a CSV in paralel. The order the results end up in
the `all` variable is not deterministic.
```javascript
var through2Concurrent = require('through2-concurrent');
var all = [];
fs.createReadStream('data.csv')
.pipe(csv2())
.pipe(through2Concurrent.obj(
{maxConcurrency: 10},
function (chunk, enc, callback) {
var self = this;
someThingAsync(chunk, function (newChunk) {
self.push(newChunk);
callback();
});
}))
.on('data', function (data) {
all.push(data)
})
.on('end', function () {
doSomethingSpecial(all)
})
```
