(Uses JSON.stringify)\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(unique())\n  .on('data', console.log);\n\n```\n\n### Dedupe a ReadStream based on an object property:\n\n``` js\n// Use name as the key field to dedupe on. Will only print one object\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(unique('name'))\n  .on('data', console.log);\n```\n\n### Dedupe a ReadStream based on a custom function:\n\n``` js\n// Use a custom function to dedupe on. Use the 'number' field. Will only print one object.\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(function (data) {\n    return data.number;\n  })\n  .on('data', console.log);\n```\n\n## Dedupe multiple streams\n\nThe reason I wrote this was to dedupe multiple object streams:\n\n``` js\nvar aggregator = unique();\n\n// Stream 1\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(aggregator);\n\n// Stream 2\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(aggregator);\n\n// Stream 3\nmakeStreamOfObjects()\n  .pipe(aggregator);\n\naggregator.on('data', console.log);\n```\n",
