CountQueuingStrategy
The CountQueuingStrategy
interface of the Streams API represents a built-in queuing strategy that counts the number of chunks in the queue.
Properties
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
highWaterMark | number | The maximum number of chunks that the queue can contain. |
Example
JavaScript
import { CountQueuingStrategy, ReadableStream } from 'k6/experimental/streams';
import { setTimeout } from 'k6/timers';
export default async function () {
// Define a number stream that emits numbers from 1 to 10 every second
const stream = numbersStream();
// We use the getReader method to create a reader and lock the stream to it
const reader = stream.getReader();
while (true) {
const { done, value } = await reader.read();
if (done) break;
console.log(`received number ${value} from stream`);
}
}
function numbersStream() {
let currentNumber = 0;
// Using the CountQueuingStrategy to limit the number of chunks in the queue to 5
const queuingStrategy = new CountQueuingStrategy({ highWaterMark: 5 });
return new ReadableStream(
{
start(controller) {
const fn = () => {
if (currentNumber < 10) {
controller.enqueue(++currentNumber);
setTimeout(fn, 1000);
return;
}
controller.close();
};
setTimeout(fn, 1000);
},
},
queuingStrategy
);
}
