parser.json();           // get an array of objects, using the first row as keys
 
parser
  .data( newCsvData )    // change data
  .delimiter( '\t' )     // change delimiter from comma to tab
  .qualifier( "'" );     // change qualifier from double to single quotes
 
parser.data();           // get current CSV data
parser.delimiter();      // get the current delimiter (defaults to ',')
parser.qualifier();      // get the current qualifier (defaults to '"')

parser = new CSVParser( csvData, {
  delimiter: '\t',       // defaults to ','
  qualifier: "'",        // defaults to '"',
  strict: false          // defaults to true - throws error with rows of uneven length
});

Compatibility

Works in browsers (optionally as an AMD module) or on the server. Browser support chart courtesy of testling-ci (take any red flags with a pinch of salt, it's been tested succcessfully in all these browsers - sometimes Testling times out!):

browser support

The tests use the legacy build, which include json2.js - use this if you need to support older browsers and are not already including json2.js.
