What does process stdout connect do?

What does

process.stdout.connect({})

do and how can I use it?

Tryied googleing it but found nothing. Tryied options but get error:

TypeError: self._handle.connect is not a function

CodePudding user response:

As the documentation says, process.stdout returns a stream connected to stdout and that stream is of type Socket. Now, if you check the documentation for Socket and look for the connect method you'll find that it initiates a connection on a given socket.

In order to use process.stdout you don't actually need to call connect, you can just write arbitrary strings to the stream which will get echoed in your stdout, e.g.

process.stdout.write("test"); // will print test to the console

But if logging to the console is your intent, it's probably easier to just use the provided console.log() which adds a lot of formatting and other stuff (see this for further info).
