Hook and modify stdout and stderr

$ npm install hook-std

const assert = require('assert');
const hookStd = require('hook-std');

const promise = hookStd.stdout(output => {
	promise.unhook();
	assert.strictEqual(output.trim(), 'unicorn');
});

console.log('unicorn');
await promise;

You can also unhook using the second transform method parameter:

const promise = hookStd.stdout((output, unhook) => {
	unhook();
	assert.strictEqual(output.trim(), 'unicorn');
});

console.log('unicorn');
await promise;
