A small, generic parser module.

It expects that you provide at least a method parse (see below for more details).

Parses an url an calls your parse method with the returned body.

parser.read("http://your-url", function(err, model) {
	// model is the parsed url
});

If callback is undefined, read returns a promise.

var p = parser.read("http://your-url");
//...
p.then(function(model) {
	// model is the parsed url
}, function(err){
	console.error("err happened during downloading", err);
});

(more to come)

Your parser should have the following methods:

• parse: Takes in an entire file as string and returns the JSON representation

Optional:

• write: Takes the JSON representation of a file and writes it in the custom format

If the file is line-by-line, one should create a new instance of the parser:

• parseLine: parses another line
• result: returns the current, resulting object of the parsing process.

var parser = function(){
  this.parse = function(data){
      return data;
  };
  Parser.mixin(this);
};

var throughParserAlt = {
  parse: function(data) {
    return data;
  }
};
Parser.mixin(throughParserAlt);
