Simple method to pipe ytdl-node steam into Express endpoint POC

proxy-stream.js

const ytdl = require('ytdl-core');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();

const videoID = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=';

app.use('mp3', express.static(__dirname + '/mp3'));

app.get('/stream/:id', (req, res) => {
  console.log('video url >> ', videoID + req.params.id);
  const astream = ytdl(videoID + req.params.id, {
    quality: 251
  });

  astream
    .on('data', chunk => {
      console.log('Data chunck received >> ', chunk);
      // fs.appendFile('./mp3/new_media.m4a', chunk, err => {
      //   if(err) throw err;
      // });
    })
    .pipe(res);
})

app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!'));
