Example for polyfilling TextDecoderStream in previous browsers

[Krithika3]

Hi I was looking to see if we could get an example to polyfill web-streams TextDecoderStream for browsers like firefox as listed here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/TransformStream

It would be great if I could find an example for the same

There's a polyfill for TextEncoderStream and TextDecoderStream in the demos of the Streams standard. You can first load web-streams-polyfill to define TransformStream, and then load the encoding stream polyfill.

Even better: the encoding streams polyfill is available as an npm package over at @stardazed/streams-text-encoding. It should be compatible with web-streams-polyfill, so you can do something like:

import 'web-streams-polyfill';
import { TextDecoderStream } from '@stardazed/streams-text-encoding';

readable.pipeThrough(new TextDecoderStream()).pipeTo(/* ... */);
