Esp. in PRs like this one: https://github.com/openpipekit/opk-phant-cli/pull/2 it can be tough to test these out; have you considered adopting a test suite -- it could run a local Phant-like service and provide a variety of piped inputs, streamed and non-streamed, JSON and plain text?

Tests would be great. I've been meaning to look into how to creat a Phant stream via their API, I'm not sure it can be done. If that's the case, then we could write a test around a single stream that is dedicated for the tests.

You can - there's a phant node package here: https://github.com/dpjanes/iotdb-phant-client

Yeah i was thinking about this too - would the test suite rely on the Sparkfun phant service, then? or maybe we could create a stream specifically for testing, that everyone could use? Also I was thinking of writing a fake serial sensor source or something... like a virtual /dev/ttyUSB0 or something.
