Writing the stream returned by node-fetch

I figured it out. the writeable stream will automatically close when the readable does. so I can hook onto that instead:

fetch(url).then(res => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const dest = fs.createWriteStream(fn);
    res.body.pipe(dest);
    dest.on('close', () => resolve());
    dest.on('error', reject);
}));

As far as I can tell, your code is correct. I ran

const fs = require("fs");
const fetch = require("node-fetch");

fetch("https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/modules/logos_page/Octocat.png")
  .then(
    res =>
      new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const dest = fs.createWriteStream("./tmp.txt");
        res.body.pipe(dest);
        res.body.on("end", () => resolve("it worked"));
        dest.on("error", reject);
      })
  )
  .then(x => console.log(x));

and it worked exactly as expected and printed "it worked"
