Support readstreams

[DylanPiercey]

Currently (As far as I can tell) formidable exposes files as write streams and saves them to the disk automatically. It would be handy if it could also have an option to expose the files as read streams so that the files are not persisted to the disk until read.

Formidable could then listen for the response to end and close and (unused) read streams.

This is also something I am very interested in!

This also will allow using all gulp plugins. 👍

Definitely for some of next (major) releases. Marking it as feature.

This would be awesome!
For now, how can I turn a writestream file into a readstream file while keeping all of its attributes?

[tunnckoCore]

@omerdn1 I don't think this much sense if possible in Node Streams. Here we are talking about from when the upload happens to be readable streams, so then later you can pipe it to transform or writable. Currently it's directly writable and written to the disk.
