Asynchronous json parser written in C++ for Node.js
async-jsonparser provides you a C++ written, libuv-worker-thread-based JSON parser for Node.js, in order to release the V8 engine from parsing json string.
When the function gets called, it converts the string into a tree structure firstly. This work is done by one of the worker threads
of the libuv, so V8 engine doesn't have to spend time on this. This helps increasing the performance of Node (compares to V8's
JSON.parse function).
After the converting process completed, the function will convert the tree structure into a JavaScript object, in the event loop
thread. When this final work is completed, the result will be passed to js code as an argument of callback function.
Specially thanks to @lloyd. This project embeds YAJL as the actual json-parsing library, which saves me a lot of time from writing parsing code by myself! Thanks!
