JSONStream is a Node.js streaming JSON parser that lets you pipe raw streams through JSONStream.parse() to emit parsed objects. It supports path-based queries so you can extract specific parts of large JSON documents incrementally.

Use cases

• parse large JSON files without loading them into memory
• stream JSON API responses and process objects as they arrive
• extract nested fields from huge JSON documents with path expressions
• pipe HTTP responses through a JSON parser in Node.js
• process newline-delimited or array-based JSON incrementally

When to choose

• you are on Node.js and need memory-efficient streaming JSON parsing
• you want to pipe parsed JSON objects directly into other streams
• you need to pull specific paths out of very large JSON documents

When to avoid

• you need full JSON.parse semantics with strict validation
• you are not in a Node.js stream-based environment
• the project needs actively maintained dependencies (last release 2018)
