     21 # Join Stream
     22 
     23 > [Transform stream][transform-stream] which joins streamed data.
     24 
     25 <section class="usage">
     26 
     27 ## Usage
     28 
     29 ```javascript
     30 var joinStream = require( '@stdlib/streams/node/join' );
     31 ```
     32 
     33 <a name="join-stream"></a>
     34 
     35 #### joinStream( \[options] )
     36 
     37 Creates a [transform stream][transform-stream] which joins streamed data.
     38 
     39 ```javascript
     40 var stdout = require( '@stdlib/streams/node/stdout' );
     41 
     42 var stream = joinStream();
     43 
     44 stream.pipe( stdout );
     45 
     46 stream.write( '1' );
     47 stream.write( '2' );
     48 stream.write( '3' );
     49 
     50 stream.end();
     51 
     52 // prints: 1\n2\n3
     53 ```
     54 
     55 The function accepts the following `options`:
     56 
     57 -   **sep**: separator used to join streamed data. Default: `'\n'`.
     58 -   **objectMode**: specifies whether a [stream][stream] should operate in object mode. Default: `false`.
     59 -   **encoding**: specifies how `Buffer` objects should be decoded to `strings`. Default: `null`.
     60 -   **highWaterMark**: specifies the `Buffer` level at which `write()` calls start returning `false`.
     61 -   **allowHalfOpen**: specifies whether a [stream][stream] should remain open even if one side ends. Default: `false`.
     62 -   **readableObjectMode**: specifies whether the readable side should be in object mode. Default: `false`.
     63 
     64 To set [stream][stream] `options`,
     65 
     66 ```javascript
     67 var opts = {
     68     'sep': ',',
     69     'objectMode': true,
     70     'encoding': 'utf8',
     71     'highWaterMark': 64,
     72     'allowHalfOpen': true,
     73     'readableObjectMode': false // overridden by `objectMode` option when `objectMode=true`
     74 };
     75 
     76 var stream = joinStream( opts );
     77 ```
     78 
     79 #### joinStream.factory( \[options] )
     80 
     81 Returns a `function` for creating [streams][transform-stream] which are identically configured according to provided `options`.
     82 
     83 ```javascript
     84 var opts = {
     85     'sep': '\t',
     86     'objectMode': true,
     87     'encoding': 'utf8',
     88     'highWaterMark': 64
     89 };
     90 
     91 var factory = joinStream.factory( opts );
     92 
     93 // Create 10 identically configured streams...
     94 var streams = [];
     95 var i;
     96 for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
     97     streams.push( factory() );
     98 }
     99 ```
    100 
    101 This method accepts the same `options` as [`joinStream()`](#join-stream).
    102 
    103 #### joinStream.objectMode( \[options] )
    104 
    105 This method is a convenience function to create [streams][stream] which **always** operate in `objectMode`.
    106 
    107 ```javascript
    108 var stdout = require( '@stdlib/streams/node/stdout' );
    109 
    110 var stream = joinStream.objectMode({
    111     'sep': ','
    112 });
    113 
    114 stream.pipe( stdout );
    115 
    116 stream.write( 'a' );
    117 stream.write( 'b' );
    118 stream.write( 'c' );
    119 
    120 stream.end();
    121 
    122 // prints: a,b,c
    123 ```
    124 
    125 This method accepts the same `options` as [`joinStream()`](#join-stream); however, the method will **always** override the [objectMode][object-mode] option in `options`.
