在 Node.js 中使用流写入大量数据

Question

Write a Node.js code to write a string "Hello world" 10^5 times in a file using stream writer in Node.js.

I have tried using loops but there is out of memory error and the system hangs.

Any better method?

var fs = require('fs');
var wstream = fs.createWriteStream('D:\\myOutput.txt');
for(var i=0;i<10^5;i++){
wstream.write('Hello world!\n');
}
wstream.end();

Node.js is a single-threaded execution environment, when you write data in a loop the node.js will not get a chance to execute other tasks, as you can see from the documentation( https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v12.x/api/stream.html#stream_writable_write_chunk_encoding_callback ) nodejs does not guarantee that all the data will be written once you call write, it can be buffered, if you want node to stay responsive, you have to free up the event loop ( https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/event-loop-timers-and-nexttick/#what-is-the-event-loop ) for other tasks, an example where you can do both is as follows. hope this clears things up

 var fs = require('fs'); var wstream = fs.createWriteStream('myOutput.txt'); wstream.on('error', function (err) { console.log(err); }); async function write() { for(var i=0;i<10^5;i++){ await writeStream(wstream, 'Hello world!\\n'); } wstream.end(); } async function writeStream (stream, data) { if (!stream.write(data)) { return new Promise((resolv, reject) => { stream.once('drain', () => {resolv();}); }); } else { return Promise.resolve(); } } write();
