Stream.on()

Set up handler functions for various events on the gRPC stream.

Parameter	Type	Description
event	string	The event name to define a handler for.
handler	function	The function to call when the event happens.

Possible events:

Event name	Description
data	Emitted when the server sends data.
error	Emitted when an error occurs. In case of the error, an `Error` object sends to the handler function.
end	Emitted when the server closes the incoming stream.

Example

JavaScript
import { Client, Stream } from 'k6/net/grpc';
import { sleep } from 'k6';

const COORD_FACTOR = 1e7;

const client = new Client();
client.load([], '../../grpc_server/route_guide.proto');

export default () => {
  if (__ITER == 0) {
    client.connect('127.0.0.1:10000', { plaintext: true });
  }

  const stream = new Stream(client, 'main.RouteGuide/RecordRoute');

  // sets up a handler for the data (server sends data) event
  stream.on('data', (stats) => {
    console.log('Finished trip with', stats.pointCount, 'points');
    console.log('Passed', stats.featureCount, 'features');
    console.log('Traveled', stats.distance, 'meters');
    console.log('It took', stats.elapsedTime, 'seconds');
  });

  // sets up a handler for the end event (stream closes)
  stream.on('end', function () {
    // The server has finished sending
    client.close();
    console.log('All done');
  });

  // sets up a handler for the error event (an error occurs)
  stream.on('error', function (e) {
    // An error has occurred and the stream has been closed.
    console.log('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(e));
  });

  sleep(1);
};
