你觉得这个怎么样?

async function streamToString(stream) {
    // lets have a ReadableStream as a stream variable
    const chunks = [];

    for await (const chunk of stream) {
        chunks.push(Buffer.from(chunk));
    }

    return Buffer.concat(chunks).toString("utf-8");
}

还有一个是使用承诺的字符串:

function getStream(stream) {
  return new Promise(resolve => {
    const chunks = [];

    # Buffer.from is required if chunk is a String, see comments
    stream.on("data", chunk => chunks.push(Buffer.from(chunk)));
    stream.on("end", () => resolve(Buffer.concat(chunks).toString()));
  });
}

用法:

const stream = fs.createReadStream(__filename);
getStream(stream).then(r=>console.log(r));

如果需要，删除. tostring()以用于二进制数据。

更新:@AndreiLED正确地指出了字符串的问题。我不能得到一个流返回字符串与节点的版本，但api指出这是可能的。

我通常使用这个简单的函数将流转换为字符串:

function streamToString(stream, cb) {
  const chunks = [];
  stream.on('data', (chunk) => {
    chunks.push(chunk.toString());
  });
  stream.on('end', () => {
    cb(chunks.join(''));
  });
}

使用的例子:

let stream = fs.createReadStream('./myFile.foo');
streamToString(stream, (data) => {
  console.log(data);  // data is now my string variable
});

从nodejs文档中，你应该这样做——永远记住一个字符串，而不知道编码只是一堆字节:

var readable = getReadableStreamSomehow();
readable.setEncoding('utf8');
readable.on('data', function(chunk) {
  assert.equal(typeof chunk, 'string');
  console.log('got %d characters of string data', chunk.length);
})

希望这比上面的答案更有用:

var string = '';
stream.on('data',function(data){
  string += data.toString();
  console.log('stream data ' + part);
});

stream.on('end',function(){
  console.log('final output ' + string);
});

请注意，字符串连接并不是收集字符串部分的最有效方法，但使用它是为了简单(也许您的代码并不关心效率)。

此外，对于非ascii文本，这段代码可能会产生不可预测的失败(它假设每个字符都适合一个字节)，但也许您也不关心这一点。

像减流器这样的东西怎么样?

下面是一个使用ES6类的例子如何使用一个。

var stream = require('stream')

class StreamReducer extends stream.Writable {
  constructor(chunkReducer, initialvalue, cb) {
    super();
    this.reducer = chunkReducer;
    this.accumulator = initialvalue;
    this.cb = cb;
  }
  _write(chunk, enc, next) {
    this.accumulator = this.reducer(this.accumulator, chunk);
    next();
  }
  end() {
    this.cb(null, this.accumulator)
  }
}

// just a test stream
class EmitterStream extends stream.Readable {
  constructor(chunks) {
    super();
    this.chunks = chunks;
  }
  _read() {
    this.chunks.forEach(function (chunk) { 
        this.push(chunk);
    }.bind(this));
    this.push(null);
  }
}

// just transform the strings into buffer as we would get from fs stream or http request stream
(new EmitterStream(
  ["hello ", "world !"]
  .map(function(str) {
     return Buffer.from(str, 'utf8');
  })
)).pipe(new StreamReducer(
  function (acc, v) {
    acc.push(v);
    return acc;
  },
  [],
  function(err, chunks) {
    console.log(Buffer.concat(chunks).toString('utf8'));
  })
);
