flowHttp-json

A flowHttp extension used to parse a JSON HTTP response.

Install

npm install flowhttp-json

Usage

This module is intended to be used with the flowHttp module.

Use this module to create a JsonParser stream. If piped data from a flowHttp request, it will detect if the response has the content-type application/json in which case it will parse it automatically and pipe the parsed object down the stream.

If you know that the response is always JSON, you should use the JSONStream module instead. This module will only try to parse the response as JSON if the content-type allows it.

var flowHttp = require('flowhttp');
var JsonParser = require('flowhttp-json');

flowHttp('http://example.com/foo.json')
  .pipe(new JsonParser())
  .pipe(process.stdout);
