What's the difference between .pipe and pipeline on streams

Question

I found two different ways to pipe streams in node.js

Well known .pipe() method of a stream

Answer 1

pipeline is the improved version of pipe it was added to stream module since Node.js v10

Also, pipeline takes any number of arguments and the last argument is a callback used to know when the pipeline ends or throws an error.

Usage pipe:

mySourceStream.pipe(myStream).pipe(anotherStream)

Usage pipeline:

mySourceStream.pipeline(myStream, anotherStream, err => {
  if (err) {
    console.log('There is an error')
 } else {
    else console.log('pipeline successful')
 }
})
