Description

Okay so I have this module that takes a csv stream and outputs a graph.
https://github.com/dominictarr/line-graph

I would love it pipe to it with bpipe, but i'd need a way to push data into that particular instance
but handle it in a custom way, instead of bpipe's default selector pattern.
I can think of some other things you could create like this too, like what about browser push deploy?
I could pipe a html file into a "hypervisor" window, which would then "spin up" an iframe and run that code in... perhaps the response stream would be the console.log output or something.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating bpipe's entry point and the implementation of its default selector pattern, then determine how a specific module instance could receive piped data through a custom handler. Done would require an agreed design and tests for the requested instance-specific behavior.
