+# @ppstreams/propagate-abort
+
+A simple abort handler for ppstreams that just passes on an incoming abort notification to the source stream.
+
+## Example:
+
+```js
+"use strict";
+
+const propagateAbort = require("@ppstreams/propagate-abort");
+
+module.exports = function makeStream() {
+	return {
+		description: `pass-through stream`,
+		read: (source) => {
+			/* This example stream just passes through the upstream value */
+			return source.read();
+		},
+		abort: propagateAbort
+	}
+};
+```
