    <p>Splits a message into a sequence of messages.</p>

    <h3>Inputs</h3>
    <dl class="message-properties">
        <dt>payload<span class="property-type">object | string | array | buffer</span></dt>
        <dd>The behaviour of the node is determined by the type of <code>msg.payload</code>:
            <ul>
                <li><b>string</b>/<b>buffer</b> - the message is split using the specified character (default: <code>\n</code>), buffer sequence or into fixed lengths.</li>
                <li><b>array</b> - the message is split into either individual array elements, or arrays of a fixed-length.</li>
                <li><b>object</b> - a message is sent for each key/value pair of the object.</li>
            </ul>
        </dd>
    </dl>
    <h3>Outputs</h3>
    <dl class="message-properties">
        <dt>parts<span class="property-type">object</span></dt>
        <dd>This property contains information about how the message was split from
        the original message. If passed to the <b>join</b> node, the sequence can be
        reassembled into a single message. The property has the following properties:
        <ul>
            <li><code>id</code> - an identifier for the group of messages</li>
            <li><code>index</code> - the position within the group</li>
            <li><code>count</code> - if known, the total number of messages in the group. See 'streaming mode' below.</li>
            <li><code>type</code> - the type of message - string/array/object/buffer</li>
            <li><code>ch</code> - for a string or buffer, the data used to the split the message as either the string or an array of bytes</li>
            <li><code>key</code> - for an object, the key of the property this message was created from. The node can be configured to also copy this value to another message properties, such as <code>msg.topic</code>.</li>
            <li><code>len</code> - the length of each message when split using a fixed length value</li>
        </ul>
        </dd>
    </dl>
    <h3>Details</h3>
    <p>This node makes it easy to create a flow that performs common actions across
    a sequence of messages before, using the <b>join</b> node, recombining the
    sequence into a single message.</p>
    <p>It uses the <code>msg.parts</code> property to track the individual parts
    of a sequence.</p>
    <h4>Streaming mode</h4>
    <p>The node can also be used to reflow a stream of messages. For example, a
    serial device that sends newline-terminated commands may deliver a single message
    with a partial command at its end. In 'streaming mode', this node will split
    a message and send each complete segment. If there is a partial segment at the end,
    the node will hold on to it and prepend it to the next message that is received.
    </p>
    <p>When operating in this mode, the node will not set the `msg.parts.count`
    property as it does not know how many messages to expect in the stream. This
    means it cannot be used with the <b>join</b> node in its automatic mode</p>

        <dd>To automatically join a sequence of messages, they should all have
        this property set. The <b>split</b> node generates this property but it
        can be manually created. It has the following properties:
        <ul>
            <li><code>id</code> - an identifier for the group of messages</li>
            <li><code>index</code> - the position within the group</li>

    <h3>Details</h3>
    <p>When configured to join in manual mode, the node is able to join sequences
     of messages in a variety of ways.</p>
    <ul>
        <li>a <b>string</b> or <b>buffer</b> - created by joining the selected property of each message with the specified join characters or buffer.</li>
        <li>an <b>array</b> - created by adding each selected property, or entire message, to the output array.</li>
        <li>a <b>key/value object</b> - created by using a property of each message to determine the key under which
        the required value is stored.</li>
        <li>a <b>merged object</b> - created by merging the property of each message under a single object.</li>
    </ul>
    <p>The other properties of the output message are taken from the last message received before the result is sent.</p>
    <p>A <i>count</i> can be set for how many messages should be received before generating the output message.
    For object outputs, once this count has been reached, the node can be configured to send a message for each subsequent message
    received.</p>
    <p>A <i>timeout</i> can be set to trigger sending the new message using whatever has been received so far.</p>
    <p>If a message is received with the <b>msg.complete</b> property set, the output message is sent.</p>
