A [multipart/form-data](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2388) encoded stream, helper for file upload.

## Install

```bash
$ npm install formstream
```

## Quick Start

```js
var formstream = require('formstream');
var http = require('http');

var form = formstream();

// form.file('file', filepath, filename);
form.file('file', './logo.png', 'upload-logo.png');

// other form fields
form.field('foo', 'fengmk2').field('love', 'aerdeng');

// even send file content buffer directly
// form.buffer(name, buffer, filename, mimeType)
form.buffer('file2', new Buffer('This is file2 content.'), 'foo.txt');

var options = {
  method: 'POST',
  host: 'upload.cnodejs.net',
  path: '/store',
  headers: form.headers()
};
var req = http.request(options, function (res) {
  console.log('Status: %s', res.statusCode);
  res.on('data', function (data) {
    console.log(data.toString());
  });
});

form.pipe(req);
```

### Chaining

```js
var fs = require('fs');
var formstream = require('formstream');

var filepath = './logo.png';
fs.stat(filepath, function (err, stat) {
  formstream().field('status', 'share picture')
      .field('access_token', 'your access token')
      .file('pic', filepath, 'logo.png', stat.size)
      .pipe(process.stdout); // your request stream
});
```
