Part of the CSV module, this project is a simple object transformation framework. It implements the Node.js stream.Transform API. It also provides a simple callback-based API for convenience. It is both extremely easy to use and powerful.

Usage
The module is built on the Node.js Stream API. For the sake of simplify, a simple callback API is also provided. To give you a quick look, here's an example of the callback API:
var transform = require('stream-transform');
input = [ [ '1', '2', '3', '4' ], [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' ] ];
transform(input, function(data){
data.push(data.shift());
return data.join(',')+'\n';
}, function(err, output){
output.should.eql([ '2,3,4,1\n', 'b,c,d,a\n' ]);
});
Development
Tests are executed with mocha. To install it, simple run npm install followed by npm test. It will install mocha and its dependencies in your project "node_modules" directory and run the test suite. The tests run against the CoffeeScript source files.
To generate the JavaScript files, run npm run coffee.
The test suite is run online with Travis. See the Travis definition file to view the tested Node.js version.
