toJSON
is normally a function used for returning JSON serializable objects from an object that doesn't allow enumeration, or for when you want JSON to only serialize a portion of the object.
For example:
function A() {
this.t = 4;
this.prop = "test";
}
A.prototype.toJSON = function() {
return {prop: this.prop}
}
var a = new A;
If a
is ever stringify
ed with JSON, you will end up with {"prop": "test"}
instead of {"t": 4, "prop": "test"}
.
tl;dr You might want to change this request to use a different function name.

Can you help clarify? If I have an array:
var myArray = [ "one", "two" ];
and I pack that with msgpack.pack:
var binaryData = msgpack.pack(myArray);
You want a function that let's you say:
var jsonString = msgpack.unpack(binaryData, 'JSON');
I tend to agree with download13, we should not call it msgpack.toJSON(). I think making something like this an option to unpack is more desirable.
Is this what you mean?
