gulp.pipe() - How do I read a chunk?

[Ken Snyder]

I'm trying to read data passed to a gulp.pipe() callback. I can't figure out how to get the data as a string.

See this gist or look below.

Thanks,

Ken Snyder


gulp.task('hello', function() {
    return gulp.src([
        'hello.js'
    ])
    .pipe(uglify())
    .pipe(
        through2.obj(function(chunk, enc, callback) {
            // I want the minified contents of hello.js
            // chunk.isBuffer() -> true
            // chunk.toString(enc) -> [object Object]
            // console.log(chunk) ->
            //    <File "hello.js" <Buffer ...>>
        })
    );
});

The chunk comes through as a vinyl object https://github.com/wearefractal/vinyl

To get the contents you'll need to use chunk.contents.toString(enc).
