Only reading additional content in a file

Question

I'm working on a project which requires reading a log file, The log file can get massive, so I only want to read additional data added to the file and not the old data to avoid potential performance issues.

I tried fs.createReadStream but it didn't seem to work:

code:

let stream = fs.createReadStream(`/path/`, { autoClose: true, encoding: "utf-8" });

stream.on('ready', () => {
    console.log("Loaded log file!");
})

stream.on("data", chunk => {

    // Data stream

});

stream.on("end", () => {
    stream.pause();

    console.log("ended");

    // Going thru the data

    setTimeout(() => {
        stream.resume();
        stream.read();
    }, 10000);

});

With that code, the "end" event only triggers once, although the stream is set to not close automatically, and no additional data is going thru.
