  # isStream
  
  [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/rvagg/isstream.png)](http://travis-ci.org/rvagg/isstream)
  
  **Test if an object is a `Stream`**
  
  [![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/isstream.svg)](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
  ```
  
  *Reminder: when implementing your own streams, please [use **readable-stream** rather than core streams](http://r.va.gg/2014/06/why-i-dont-use-nodes-core-stream-module.html).*
