Multee, an io.Reader multiplexer

Purpose

This package implements a multiplexer for io.Reader, making it possible to read from a single io.Reader several times concurrently, without needing to Seek back to the beginning.

Usage

Create a multee-reader from a single io.Reader, and create as many readers as you need:

	inputReader := strings.NewReader("Foo")
	mr := multee.NewMulteeReader(inputReader)
	r1 := mr.NewReader()
	r2 := mr.NewReader()
	r3 := mr.NewReader()

Now, you can use r1, r2 and r3 as a regular io.ReadCloser.

Each reader must be read in its own go-routine, and they must either be read until EOF or Close() must be called, or the MulteeReader will block.

The returned readers themselves are not concurrency-safe.

Testing

Just run poor man's CI, make test.
