How to run binary stream from client to server?

Question

JavaScript

I want to create a stream from the browser (or other client) to the server. Can this be done using HTTP?

Answer 1

It is possible, via websocket. There is even a ready-made npm package for these purposes websocket-stream

Use HTML5 websockets using the Node Streams API.
Usage
This module works in Node or in Browsers that support WebSockets. You can use browserify to package this module for browser use.

Or do you need pure http?
