buncher

buncher collects data from different sources and accumulates it into one object. It will not return keys for incorrect items: incorrect URL, code is not 200, invalid data. These keys will be in err object.

Example:

get([
    { name: 'name1', url: "http://url-to.json", schema: 'tests/schema/name.json' },
    // type 'plain' means it will not be parsed as JSON
    { name: 'name2', url: "http://url-to.html/xml", type: 'plain' }
], function( err, results ) {
    console.log( results.name1 );   // parsed and checked JSON from name1
    console.log( results.name2 );   // plain HTML from name2
});
