I catch "Unhandled stream error in pipe" sometimes

[NeXTs]

I can not determine the method in which it occurs, but sometimes node.js crashes with this message.

stream.js:94
      throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe.
            ^
Error: Unexpected "h" at position 1 in state START

My options are as follows

bittrexApi.options({
        'apikey': config.bittrex_public_key,
        'apisecret': config.bittrex_private_key,
        'stream': true,
        'verbose': false,
        'cleartext': false
    });

List of requests I made

client.sendCustomRequest('https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/account/getorderhistory?market='+marketId+'&count=10', function(){
}, true);

client.getmarketsummaries(function(data) {
});

client.getbalances(function (data) {
});

client.getorderbook({market: marketId, depth: 15, type: 'both'}, function(data) {
});

client.sendCustomRequest('https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/market/getopenorders?market='+marketId, function( data ) {
}, true);

Any ideas why this is happening ?

I am experiencing the same issue, is there a solution for this issue or you just simply closed it ?

this is an issue with the JSONStream library, it's about what can be considered a JSON object, the strings start/end parseability.

i changed the way data gets parsed by JSONStream so it only returns text now - but you have to parse the returned text by yourself!

i bumped the github & npmjs version, so try if it works now, if not then consider to relinquish the stream api and use the simple request calls.

also consider to like/star projects you use.
