ReadableByteStreamController: enqueue() method
The enqueue()
method of the ReadableByteStreamController
interface enqueues a given chunk on the associated readable byte stream (the chunk is copied into the stream's internal queues).
This should only be used to transfer data to the queue when byobRequest
is null
.
Syntax
js
enqueue(chunk)
Parameters
chunk
-
The chunk to enqueue.
Return value
None (undefined
).
Exceptions
TypeError
-
Thrown if the source object is not a
ReadableByteStreamController
, or the stream cannot be read for some other reason, or the chunk is not an object, or the chunk's internal array buffer is non-existent, zero-length, or detached. It is also thrown if the stream has been closed.
Examples
The example in Using readable byte streams > Creating a readable socket push byte stream shows how you can use enqueue()
to copy data to the stream if there is no outstanding byobRequest
.
If there is a byobRequest
then it should be used!
The code below shows data being read into an ArrayBuffer
using a "hypothetical" socket.readInto()
method and then enqueued (but only if data was actually copied):
js
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(DEFAULT_CHUNK_SIZE);
bytesRead = socket.readInto(buffer, 0, DEFAULT_CHUNK_SIZE);
if (bytesRead === 0) {
controller.close();
} else {
controller.enqueue(new Uint8Array(buffer, 0, bytesRead));
}
