Question

I am attempting to read a file that is in a aws s3 bucket using

fs.readFile(file, function (err, contents) {
  var myLines = contents.Body.toString().split(         


        

Answer 1

Since you seem to want to process an S3 text file line-by-line. Here is a Node version that uses the standard readline module and AWS' createReadStream()

const readline = require('readline');

const rl = readline.createInterface({
    input: s3.getObject(params).createReadStream()
});

rl.on('line', function(line) {
    console.log(line);
})
.on('close', function() {
});
