It seems there is no way to abort an upload or download request created by file.createWriteStream() and file.createReadStream() respectively.

Node's native HTTP client has request.abort(), but as far as I can tell the above methods return simple through2 streams and keep the raw HTTP requests / responses hidden.

So is there a way to abort a request in progress?

    You should be able to destroy the stream with stream.destroy() and assuming that validation is turned on (on by default), the upload/download will fail. Can you try that and let us know how that works?

    stream.destroy() seems to work great, thanks!
