虽然您可能应该像上面的答案所建议的那样使用readline模块，但readline似乎面向命令行接口，而不是行读取。关于缓冲，它也有点不透明。(任何需要流式行阅读器的人可能都想调整缓冲区大小)。readline模块大约有1000行，而这个，加上统计和测试，是34行。

const EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter;
class LineReader extends EventEmitter{
    constructor(f, delim='\n'){
        super();
        this.totalChars = 0;
        this.totalLines = 0;
        this.leftover = '';

        f.on('data', (chunk)=>{
            this.totalChars += chunk.length;
            let lines = chunk.split(delim);
            if (lines.length === 1){
                this.leftover += chunk;
                return;
            }
            lines[0] = this.leftover + lines[0];
            this.leftover = lines[lines.length-1];
            if (this.leftover) lines.pop();
            this.totalLines += lines.length;
            for (let l of lines) this.onLine(l);
        });
        // f.on('error', ()=>{});
        f.on('end', ()=>{console.log('chars', this.totalChars, 'lines', this.totalLines)});
    }
    onLine(l){
        this.emit('line', l);
    }
}
//Command line test
const f = require('fs').createReadStream(process.argv[2], 'utf8');
const delim = process.argv[3];
const lineReader = new LineReader(f, delim);
lineReader.on('line', (line)=> console.log(line));

下面是一个更短的版本，没有统计数据，只有19行:

class LineReader extends require('events').EventEmitter{
    constructor(f, delim='\n'){
        super();
        this.leftover = '';
        f.on('data', (chunk)=>{
            let lines = chunk.split(delim);
            if (lines.length === 1){
                this.leftover += chunk;
                return;
            }
            lines[0] = this.leftover + lines[0];
            this.leftover = lines[lines.length-1];
            if (this.leftover) 
                lines.pop();
            for (let l of lines)
                this.emit('line', l);
        });
    }
}

2019年更新

Nodejs官方文档中已经发布了一个很棒的例子。在这里

这需要在您的机器上安装最新的Nodejs。> 11.4

const fs = require('fs');
const readline = require('readline');

async function processLineByLine() {
  const fileStream = fs.createReadStream('input.txt');

  const rl = readline.createInterface({
    input: fileStream,
    crlfDelay: Infinity
  });
  // Note: we use the crlfDelay option to recognize all instances of CR LF
  // ('\r\n') in input.txt as a single line break.

  for await (const line of rl) {
    // Each line in input.txt will be successively available here as `line`.
    console.log(`Line from file: ${line}`);
  }
}

processLineByLine();

您不必打开文件，而是必须创建一个ReadStream。

fs.createReadStream

然后将该流传递给Lazy

编辑:

使用转换流。

使用BufferedReader，您可以读取行。

new BufferedReader ("lorem ipsum", { encoding: "utf8" })
    .on ("error", function (error){
        console.log ("error: " + error);
    })
    .on ("line", function (line){
        console.log ("line: " + line);
    })
    .on ("end", function (){
        console.log ("EOF");
    })
    .read ();

在进行此类操作时，我们必须问自己两个问题:

执行它需要多少内存? 内存消耗是否随着文件大小的增加而急剧增加?

require('fs'). readfilesync()等解决方案将整个文件加载到内存中。这意味着执行操作所需的内存量将几乎等同于文件大小。对于大于50mbs的数据，我们应该避免使用这种方法

通过在函数调用之后放置以下代码行，我们可以很容易地跟踪函数所使用的内存量:

    const used = process.memoryUsage().heapUsed / 1024 / 1024;
    console.log(
      `The script uses approximately ${Math.round(used * 100) / 100} MB`
    );

现在，从大文件中读取特定行最好的方法是使用node的readline。文档中有一些惊人的例子。

这是我最喜欢的浏览文件的方式，是使用现代async/await进行渐进式(不是“slurp”或全内存方式)文件读取的简单本机解决方案。在处理大型文本文件时，我发现这是一种“自然”的解决方案，而不必求助于readline包或任何非核心依赖项。

let buf = '';
for await ( const chunk of fs.createReadStream('myfile') ) {
    const lines = buf.concat(chunk).split(/\r?\n/);
    buf = lines.pop();
    for( const line of lines ) {
        console.log(line);
    }
}
if(buf.length) console.log(buf);  // last line, if file does not end with newline

您可以在fs中调整编码。creatererestream或使用chunk.toString(<arg>)。这也让你更好地微调线分裂到你的口味，即。使用.split(/\n+/)跳过空行，用{highWaterMark: <chunkSize>}控制块大小。

Don't forget to create a function like processLine(line) to avoid repeating the line processing code twice due to the ending buf leftover. Unfortunately, the ReadStream instance does not update its end-of-file flags in this setup, so there's no way, afaik, to detect within the loop that we're in the last iteration without some more verbose tricks like comparing the file size from a fs.Stats() with .bytesRead. Hence the final buf processing solution, unless you're absolutely sure your file ends with a newline \n, in which case the for await loop should suffice.

★如果你更喜欢事件异步版本，这将是它:

let buf = '';
fs.createReadStream('myfile')
.on('data', chunk => {
    const lines = buf.concat(chunk).split(/\r?\n/);
    buf = lines.pop();
    for( const line of lines ) {
        console.log(line);
    }
})
.on('end', () => buf.length && console.log(buf) );

★现在如果你不介意导入流核心包，那么这是等效的管道流版本，它允许链接转换，如gzip解压:

const { Writable } = require('stream');
let buf = '';
fs.createReadStream('myfile').pipe(
    new Writable({
        write: (chunk, enc, next) => {
            const lines = buf.concat(chunk).split(/\r?\n/);
            buf = lines.pop();
            for (const line of lines) {
                console.log(line);
            }
            next();
        }
    })
).on('finish', () => buf.length && console.log(buf) );
