								**Test if an object is a `Stream`**
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
|

								[](https://nodei.co/npm/isstream/)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The missing `Stream.isStream(obj)`: determine if an object is standard Node.js `Stream`. Works for Node-core `Stream` objects (for 0.8, 0.10, 0.11, and in theory, older and newer versions) and all versions of **[readable-stream](https://github.com/isaacs/readable-stream)**.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								## Usage:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var isStream = require('isstream')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var Stream = require('stream')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream()) // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream({}) // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream.Readable())    // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream.Writable())    // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream.Duplex())      // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream.Transform())   // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isStream(new Stream.PassThrough()) // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								## But wait! There's more!
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								You can also test for `isReadable(obj)`, `isWritable(obj)` and `isDuplex(obj)` to test for implementations of Streams2 (and Streams3) base classes.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```js
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var isReadable = require('isstream').isReadable
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var isWritable = require('isstream').isWritable
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var isDuplex = require('isstream').isDuplex
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								var Stream = require('stream')
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream()) // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream()) // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream())   // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream.Readable())    // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream.Writable())    // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream.Duplex())      // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream.Transform())   // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isReadable(new Stream.PassThrough()) // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream.Readable())    // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream.Writable())    // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream.Duplex())      // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream.Transform())   // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isWritable(new Stream.PassThrough()) // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream.Readable())    // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream.Writable())    // false
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream.Duplex())      // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream.Transform())   // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								isDuplex(new Stream.PassThrough()) // true
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 |
