newline-json
Just like JSONStream, but instead of streaming valid JSON arrays, it streams new-line separated JSON objects.
It requires browserify 3.x from 0.1 upwards, versions 0.0.x are compatible with browserify 2.x.
Example
If you have a readable stream like
var n = 100;var nlj = ;nlj { if n-- nlj; // new-line separated JSON! else nlj;}return nlj;
you can pipe it to the parser
var Parser = Parser;var parser = ;nlj;
what comes out of the parser will be the the objects you piped to it, parsed. You can pipe those again to the stringifier:
var Stringifier = Stringifier;var stringifier = ;parser;
And if you have nothing better to do today, be sure to try
parser;stringifier;
Why ?
Couldn't find one on npm that used the
Transform
,
and IMO if you don't need to parse complex object paths, then you'd be better off
using a new-line separated JSON. Also, it's probably much easier to write parsers
like this in other languages and environments, which is good if your stack is
not 100% node.js.
