About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

parseNDJSON

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Parse a string containing serialized newline-delimited JSON (NDJSON).

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-parse-ndjson

Usage

var parseNDJSON = require( '@stdlib/utils-parse-ndjson' );

parseNDJSON( str[, reviver] )

Parses a string as newline-delimited JSON.

var out = parseNDJSON( '{"beep":"boop"}\n{"example":42}' );
// returns [ { 'beep': 'boop' }, { 'example': 42 } ]

To transform the string being parsed, provide a reviver.

function reviver( key, value ) {
    if ( key === '' || key === 'beep' ) {
        return ( typeof value === 'string' ) ? value.toUpperCase() : value;
    }
    return ( typeof value === 'number' ) ? value * 2 : value;
}

var str = '{"beep":"boop"}\n{"value": 20}\n{"numbers": [1,2,3]}';
var out = parseNDJSON( str, reviver );
// returns [ { 'beep' : 'BOOP' }, { 'value': 40 }, { 'numbers': [ 2, 4, 6 ] } ]

Notes

  • In contrast to the native JSON.parse(), this implementation parses string as newline-delimited JSON and returns an array of parsed JSONs.

    var out = JSON.parse( '{"beep":"boop"}\n{"foo":"baz"}' );
    // throws <SyntaxError>
    
    out = parseNDJSON( '{"beep":"boop"}\n{"foo":"baz"}' );
    // returns [ { 'beep': 'boop' }, { 'foo': 'baz' } ]
  • In contrast to the native JSON.parse(), this implementation throws a TypeError if provided any value which is not a string.

    var out = JSON.parse( null );
    // returns null
    
    out = parseNDJSON( null );
    // throws <TypeError>
  • In contrast to the native JSON.parse(), this implementation does not throw a SyntaxError if unable to parse a string as newline-delimited JSON.

    var out = parseNDJSON( '{"beep":boop}' );
    // returns <SyntaxError>
    
    out = JSON.parse( '{"beep":boop}' );
    // throws <SyntaxError>
  • In contrast to the native JSON.parse(), this implementation throws a TypeError if provided a reviver argument which is not a function.

    var out = JSON.parse( '{"a":"b"}', [] );
    // returns { 'a': 'b' }
    
    out = parseNDJSON( '{"a":"b"}', [] );
    // throws <TypeError>

Examples

var parseNDJSON = require( '@stdlib/utils-parse-ndjson' );

var out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":"John"}\n{"name":"Doe"}' );
// returns [ { 'name': 'John' }, { 'name': 'Doe' } ]

function reviver( key, value ) {
    if ( key === 'name' ) {
        return value.toUpperCase();
    }
    return value;
}

out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":"John"}\n{"name":"Doe"}', reviver );
// returns [ { 'name': 'JOHN' }, { 'name': 'DOE' } ]

out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":John}\n{"name":Doe}' );
// returns <SyntaxError>

out = parseNDJSON( ' ' );
// returns []

out = parseNDJSON( '{}' );
// returns [ {} ]

out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":"Eve"}\n42\ntrue\n[1,2,3]' );
// returns [ { 'name': 'Eve' }, 42, true, [ 1, 2, 3 ] ]

out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":"John"}\r\n{"name":"Doe"}' );
// returns [ { 'name': 'John' }, { 'name': 'Doe' } ]

out = parseNDJSON( '{"name":"John"}\n{"name":"Doe"}\n' );
// returns [ { 'name': 'John' }, { 'name': 'Doe' } ]

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
