+# JSONTransport [![build status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/kilianc/node-json-transport.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/kilianc/node-json-transport)
+
+JSONTransport is the default transport for [ApiServer](https://github.com/kilianc/node-apiserver). __JSONTransport__ is the true power of __ApiServer__. It allows you to provide a JSONP API consumable by a browser both with POST and GET HTTP methods.
+
+Multiple output wrappers are available:
+
+* __JSON__: `application/json`
+* __JSONP__: `text/javascript`
+* __JSONP + iFrame__: `text/html`
+
+The transports auto select the right wrapper based on the callback parameter presence (querystring) and the HTTP method.
+
+![table](http://f.cl.ly/items/460B2P0h3m3c22000W1p/json-transport-0.1.0.png)
+
+For example:
+
+`GET http://localhost/1/test/test` will response in JSON format
+
+`GET http://localhost/1/test/test?callback=cb` will response in JSONP format
+
+`POST http://localhost/1/test/test` will response in JSON format
+
+`POST http://localhost/1/test/test?callback=cb` will response in JSONP + iFrame format
+
+# Syntax
+
+```javascript
+new JSONTransport([options])
+```
+
+## Options
+
+* __indentationString__: (`String`|`Boolean`: defaults to 3 spaces) the string used to format your json output or `false` to avoid the indentation
+* __domain__ - (`String`: defaults to '.default.lan') the first level domain where your API will be consumed. ([???](#cors))
+
+## Example
+
+```javascript
+new JSONTransport({
+  indent: '  ',
+  domain: '.example.com'
+})
+```
+
+```javascript
+new ApiServer({
+  port: 80,
+  timeout: 2000,
+  indent: false, // passed to JSONTransport
+  domain: '.example.com'   // passed to JSONTransport
+})
+```
+
+The following methods are attached to the response:
+
+# serveJSON
+
+This method writes data back to the client and closes the response.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```javascript
+response.serveJSON([data], [options])
+```
+## Arguments
+
+* __data__ - (`Object`) the data to send back to the client
+* __options__ - (`Object`)
+  * __headers__ - (`Object`) a headers list that will eventually override the default ones
+  * __httpStatusCode__ - (`Number`: defaults to 200)
+  * __httpStatusMessage__ - (`String`: defaults to '')
+
+## Example
+
+```javascript
+// decontextualized API method
+function (request, response) {
+  response.serveJSON({ foo: 'bar' })
+})
+```
+
+```javascript
+// decontextualized API method
+function (request, response) {
+  response.serveJSON(['foo','bar', ...], {
+    httpStatusCode: 404,
+    httpStatusMessage: 'maybe.. you\'re lost',
+    headers: {
+      'x-value': 'foo'
+    }
+  })
+})
+```
+
+# streamJSON
+
+The streamJSON is absolutely another __killer feature__. It allows you to stream JSON objects to the browser as soon as they are available to you, for example as soon as the [MongoDb CursorStream](http://mongodb.github.com/node-mongodb-native/api-generated/cursorstream.html) emits the `data` event. This means that we are keeping in memory only one object at time and consequently, saving memory.
+
+_N.B. the browser still needs to wait the entire response to consume it_.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```javascript
+response.streamJSON([data], [options])
+```
+
+## Arguments
+
+* __data__ - (`Object`) the data to send back to the client
+* __options__ - (`Object`)
+  * __headers__ - (`Object`) a headers list that will eventually override the default ones
+  * __httpStatusCode__ - (`Number`: defaults to 200)
+  * __httpStatusMessage__ - (`String`: defaults to '')
+
+To close the response you must call `streamJSON` once without arguments. JSONTransport will understand that this is the end of the streaming.
+
+## Example
+
+```javascript
+// decontextualized API method
+function (request, response) {
+  var count = 3
+  var interval = setInterval(function () {
+    if (count === 0) {
+      clearInterval(interval)
+      response.streamJSON()
+    } else {
+      count--
+      response.streamJSON({ foo: 'bar' })
+    }
+  }, 200)
+})
+```
+
+yields
+
+```javascript
+[
+   { "foo": "bar" },
+   { "foo": "bar" },
+   { "foo": "bar" }
+]
+```

+# How to contribute
+
+This repository follows (more or less) the [Felix's Node.js Style Guide](http://nodeguide.com/style.html), your contribution must be consistent with this style.
+
+The test suite is written on top of [visionmedia/mocha](http://visionmedia.github.com/mocha/) and it took hours of hard work. Please use the tests to check if your contribution is breaking some part of the library and add new tests for each new feature.
+
+    ⚡ npm test
+
+and for your test coverage
+
+    ⚡ make test-cov
