对象模式

\Object mode

Node.js API 创建的所有流都专门对字符串、<Buffer>、<TypedArray> 和 <DataView> 对象进行操作:

\All streams created by Node.js APIs operate exclusively on strings, <Buffer>, <TypedArray> and <DataView> objects:

• Strings 和 Buffers 是流中最常用的类型。

  \Strings and Buffers are the most common types used with streams.

• TypedArray 和 DataView 允许你处理 Int32Array 或 Uint8Array 等类型的二进制数据。当你将 TypedArray 或 DataView 写入流时,Node.js 会处理原始字节。

  \TypedArray and DataView lets you handle binary data with types like Int32Array or Uint8Array. When you write a TypedArray or DataView to a stream, Node.js processes the raw bytes.

但是,流的实现可以使用其他类型的 JavaScript 值(除了 null,它在流中具有特殊用途)。这样的流被认为在 "对象模式" 中运行。

\It is possible, however, for stream implementations to work with other types of JavaScript values (with the exception of null, which serves a special purpose within streams). Such streams are considered to operate in "object mode".

流的实例在创建流时使用 objectMode 选项切换到对象模式。尝试将现有的流切换到对象模式是不安全的。

\Stream instances are switched into object mode using the objectMode option when the stream is created. Attempting to switch an existing stream into object mode is not safe.
