Endpoints

Graceful shutdown waits for in-flight events to complete, then closes connections cleanly—no lost events, no crashes.

Rate limiting is built in: configure token buckets, sliding windows, or adaptive limits that respond to backpressure.

await stream.on('user.created', async (event) =>  console.log(event.data.email); );

The core forgedb object is a lightweight wrapper that manages the lifecycle of your event stream.

Endpoints

Each event flows through a series of transformation stages, with built-in support for filtering, mapping, and conditional routing.

stream.pipe(map(e => e.data), buffer(100, 5000), flatMap(batch => fetch('/api/bulk',  body: JSON.stringify(batch) ))).catch(console.error);

Error handling is explicit: catch failures at any stage, log them, and route bad events to a dead-letter queue without stopping the main pipeline.
