documentation applies to\nthe latest of both the version 1 and version 0.9 
release trains. These releases\nare stable. There will be no further releases 
of 0.9 after 0.9.7 which is nearly\nequivalent to version 1.0.0. All further 
releases of `q@~1.0` will be backward\ncompatible. The version 2 release train 
introduces significant and\nbackward-incompatible changes and is experimental 
at this time.*\n\nIf a function cannot return a value or throw an exception 
without\nblocking, it can return a promise instead.  A promise is an 
object\nthat represents the return value or the thrown exception that 
the\nfunction may eventually provide.  A prom
 ise can also be used as a\nproxy for a [remote object][Q-Connection] to 
overcome latency.\n\n[Q-Connection]: 
https://github.com/kriskowal/q-connection\n\nOn the first pass, promises can 
mitigate the “[Pyramid of\nDoom][POD]”: the situation where code marches to 
the right faster\nthan it marches forward.\n\n[POD]: 
http://calculist.org/blog/2011/12/14/why-coroutines-wont-work-on-the-web/\n\n```javascript\nstep1(function
 (value1) {\n    step2(value1, function(value2) {\n        step3(value2, 
function(value3) {\n            step4(value3, function(value4) {\n              
  // Do something with value4\n            });\n        });\n    
});\n});\n```\n\nWith a promise library, you can flatten the 
pyramid.\n\n```javascript\nQ.fcall(promisedStep1)\n.then(promisedStep2)\n.then(promisedStep3)\n.then(promisedStep4)\n.then(function
 (value4) {\n    // Do something with value4\n})\n.catch(function (error) {\n   
 // Handle any error from all above steps\n})\n.done();\n```\n\nWith this 
approach
 , you also get implicit error propagation, just like `try`,\n`catch`, and 
`finally`.  An error in `promisedStep1` will flow all the way to\nthe `catch` 
function, where it’s caught and handled.  (Here `promisedStepN` is\na version 
of `stepN` that returns a promise.)\n\nThe callback approach is called an 
“inversion of control”.\nA function that accepts a callback instead of a 
return value\nis saying, “Don’t call me, I’ll call you.”.  
Promises\n[un-invert][IOC] the inversion, cleanly separating the 
input\narguments from control flow arguments.  This simplifies the\nuse and 
creation of API’s, particularly variadic,\nrest and spread 
arguments.\n\n[IOC]:

Tutorial\n\nPromises have a ``then`` method, which you can use to get the 
eventual\nreturn value (fulfillment) or thrown exception 
(rejection).\n\n```javascript\npromiseMeSomething()\n.then(function (value) 
{\n}, function (reason) {\n});\n```\n\nIf ``promiseMeSomething`` returns a 
promise that gets
  fulfilled later\nwith a return value, the first function (the fulfillment 
handler) will be\ncalled with the value.  However, if the 
``promiseMeSomething`` function\ngets rejected later by a thrown exception, the 
second function (the\nrejection handler) will be called with the 
exception.\n\nNote that resolution of a promise is always asynchronous: that 
is, the\nfulfillment or rejection handler will always be called in the next 
turn of the\nevent loop (i.e. `process.nextTick` in Node). This gives you a 
nice\nguarantee when mentally tracing the flow of your code, namely 
that\n``then`` will always return before either handler is executed.\n\nIn this 
tutorial, we begin with how to consume and work with promises. We'll\ntalk 
about how to create them, and thus create functions like\n`promiseMeSomething` 
that return promises, [below](#the-beginning).\n\n\n### Propagation\n\nThe 
``then`` method returns a promise, which in this example, I’m\nassigning to 
``outputPromise``.\n\n```javascript
 \nvar outputPromise = getInputPromise()\n.then(function (input) {\n}, function 
(reason) {\n});\n```\n\nThe ``outputPromise`` variable becomes a new promise 
for the return\nvalue of either handler.  Since a function can only either 
return a\nvalue or throw an exception, only one handler will ever be called and 
it\nwill be responsible for resolving ``outputPromise``.\n\n-   If you return a 
value in a handler, ``outputPromise`` will get\n    fulfilled.\n\n-   If you 
throw an exception in a handler, ``outputPromise`` will get\n    rejected.\n\n- 
  If you return a **promise** in a handler, ``outputPromise`` will\n    
“become” that promise.  Being able to become a new promise is useful\n    
for managing delays, combining results, or recovering from errors.\n\nIf the 
``getInputPromise()`` promise gets rejected and you omit the\nrejection 
handler, the **error** will go to ``outputPromise``:\n\n```javascript\nvar 
outputPromise = getInputPromise()\n.then(function (value) {\n});\n```\n\nIf
  the input promise gets fulfilled and you omit the fulfillment handler, 
the\n**value** will go to ``outputPromise``:\n\n```javascript\nvar 
outputPromise = getInputPromise()\n.then(null, function (error) 
{\n});\n```\n\nQ promises provide a ``fail`` shorthand for ``then`` when you 
are only\ninterested in handling the error:\n\n```javascript\nvar outputPromise 
= getInputPromise()\n.fail(function (error) {\n});\n```\n\nIf you are writing 
JavaScript for modern engines only or using\nCoffeeScript, you may use `catch` 
instead of `fail`.\n\nPromises also have a ``fin`` function that is like a 
``finally`` clause.\nThe final handler gets called, with no arguments, when the 
promise\nreturned by ``getInputPromise()`` either returns a value or throws 
an\nerror.  The value returned or error thrown by ``getInputPromise()``\npasses 
directly to ``outputPromise`` unless the final handler fails, and\nmay be 
delayed if the final handler returns a promise.\n\n```javascript\nvar 
outputPromise = getInputP
 romise()\n.fin(function () {\n    // close files, database connections, stop 
servers, conclude tests\n});\n```\n\n-   If the handler returns a value, the 
value is ignored\n-   If the handler throws an error, the error passes to 
``outputPromise``\n-   If the handler returns a promise, ``outputPromise`` gets 
postponed.  The\n    eventual value or error has the same effect as an 
immediate return\n    value or thrown error: a value would be ignored, an error 
would be\n    forwarded.\n\nIf you are writing JavaScript for modern engines 
only or using\nCoffeeScript, you may use `finally` instead of `fin`.\n\n### 
Chaining\n\nThere are two ways to chain promises.  You can chain promises 
either\ninside or outside handlers.  The next two examples are 
equivalent.\n\n```javascript\nreturn getUsername()\n.then(function (username) 
{\n    return getUser(username)\n    .then(function (user) {\n        // if we 
get here without an error,\n        // the value returned here\n        // or 
the exception
  thrown here\n        // resolves the promise returned\n        // by the 
first line\n    })\n});\n```\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
getUsername()\n.then(function (username) {\n    return 
getUser(username);\n})\n.then(function (user) {\n    // if we get here without 
an error,\n    // the value returned here\n    // or the exception thrown 
here\n    // resolves the promise returned\n    // by the first 
line\n});\n```\n\nThe only difference is nesting.  It’s useful to nest 
handlers if you\nneed to capture multiple input values in your 
closure.\n\n```javascript\nfunction authenticate() {\n    return 
getUsername()\n    .then(function (username) {\n        return 
getUser(username);\n    })\n    // chained because we will not need the user 
name in the next event\n    .then(function (user) {\n        return 
getPassword()\n        // nested because we need both user and password next\n  
      .then(function (password) {\n            if (user.passwordHash !== 
hash(password)) {\n                
 throw new Error(\"Can't authenticate\");\n            }\n        });\n    
});\n}\n```\n\n\n### Combination\n\nYou can turn an array of promises into a 
promise for the whole,\nfulfilled array using ``all``.\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
Q.all([\n    eventualAdd(2, 2),\n    eventualAdd(10, 20)\n]);\n```\n\nIf you 
have a promise for an array, you can use ``spread`` as a\nreplacement for 
``then``.  The ``spread`` function “spreads” the\nvalues over the arguments 
of the fulfillment handler.  The rejection handler\nwill get called at the 
first sign of failure.  That is, whichever of\nthe received promises fails 
first gets handled by the rejection handler.\n\n```javascript\nfunction 
eventualAdd(a, b) {\n    return Q.spread([a, b], function (a, b) {\n        
return a + b;\n    })\n}\n```\n\nBut ``spread`` calls ``all`` initially, so you 
can skip it in chains.\n\n```javascript\nreturn getUsername()\n.then(function 
(username) {\n    return [username, getUser(username)];\n})\n.spread(function (
 username, user) {\n});\n```\n\nThe ``all`` function returns a promise for an 
array of values.  When this\npromise is fulfilled, the array contains the 
fulfillment values of the original\npromises, in the same order as those 
promises.  If one of the given promises\nis rejected, the returned promise is 
immediately rejected, not waiting for the\nrest of the batch.  If you want to 
wait for all of the promises to either be\nfulfilled or rejected, you can use 
``allSettled``.\n\n```javascript\nQ.allSettled(promises)\n.then(function 
(results) {\n    results.forEach(function (result) {\n        if (result.state 
=== \"fulfilled\") {\n            var value = result.value;\n        } else {\n 
           var reason = result.reason;\n        }\n    });\n});\n```\n\nThe 
``any`` function accepts an array of promises and returns a promise that 
is\nfulfilled by the first given promise to be fulfilled, or rejected if all of 
the\ngiven promises are rejected.\n\n```javascript\nQ.any(promises)\n.then(fun
 ction (first) {\n    // Any of the promises was fulfilled.\n}, function 
(error) {\n    // All of the promises were rejected.\n});\n```\n\n### 
Sequences\n\nIf you have a number of promise-producing functions that need\nto 
be run sequentially, you can of course do so manually:\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
foo(initialVal).then(bar).then(baz).then(qux);\n```\n\nHowever, if you want to 
run a dynamically constructed sequence of\nfunctions, you'll want something 
like this:\n\n```javascript\nvar funcs = [foo, bar, baz, qux];\n\nvar result = 
Q(initialVal);\nfuncs.forEach(function (f) {\n    result = 
result.then(f);\n});\nreturn result;\n```\n\nYou can make this slightly more 
compact using `reduce`:\n\n```javascript\nreturn funcs.reduce(function (soFar, 
f) {\n    return soFar.then(f);\n}, Q(initialVal));\n```\n\nOr, you could use 
the ultra-compact version:\n\n```javascript\nreturn funcs.reduce(Q.when, 
Q(initialVal));\n```\n\n### Handling Errors\n\nOne sometimes-unintuive aspect 
of promises is tha
 t if you throw an\nexception in the fulfillment handler, it will not be caught 
by the error\nhandler.\n\n```javascript\nreturn foo()\n.then(function (value) 
{\n    throw new Error(\"Can't bar.\");\n}, function (error) {\n    // We only 
get here if \"foo\" fails\n});\n```\n\nTo see why this is, consider the 
parallel between promises and\n``try``/``catch``. We are ``try``-ing to execute 
``foo()``: the error\nhandler represents a ``catch`` for ``foo()``, while the 
fulfillment handler\nrepresents code that happens *after* the ``try``/``catch`` 
block.\nThat code then needs its own ``try``/``catch`` block.\n\nIn terms of 
promises, this means chaining your rejection handler:\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
foo()\n.then(function (value) {\n    throw new Error(\"Can't 
bar.\");\n})\n.fail(function (error) {\n    // We get here with either foo's 
error or bar's error\n});\n```\n\n### Progress Notification\n\nIt's possible 
for promises to report their progress, e.g. for tasks that take a\nlong time lik
 e a file upload. Not all promises will implement progress\nnotifications, but 
for those that do, you can consume the progress values using\na third parameter 
to ``then``:\n\n```javascript\nreturn uploadFile()\n.then(function () {\n    // 
Success uploading the file\n}, function (err) {\n    // There was an error, and 
we get the reason for error\n}, function (progress) {\n    // We get notified 
of the upload's progress as it is executed\n});\n```\n\nLike `fail`, Q also 
provides a shorthand for progress callbacks\ncalled 
`progress`:\n\n```javascript\nreturn uploadFile().progress(function (progress) 
{\n    // We get notified of the upload's progress\n});\n```\n\n### The 
End\n\nWhen you get to the end of a chain of promises, you should 
either\nreturn the last promise or end the chain.  Since handlers 
catch\nerrors, it’s an unfortunate pattern that the exceptions can 
go\nunobserved.\n\nSo, either return it,\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
foo()\n.then(function () {\n    return \"bar\";\n});\n`
 ``\n\nOr, end it.\n\n```javascript\nfoo()\n.then(function () {\n    return 
\"bar\";\n})\n.done();\n```\n\nEnding a promise chain makes sure that, if an 
error doesn’t get\nhandled before the end, it will get rethrown and 
reported.\n\nThis is a stopgap. We are exploring ways to make unhandled 
errors\nvisible without any explicit handling.\n\n\n### The 
Beginning\n\nEverything above assumes you get a promise from somewhere else.  
This\nis the common case.  Every once in a while, you will need to create 
a\npromise from scratch.\n\n#### Using ``Q.fcall``\n\nYou can create a promise 
from a value using ``Q.fcall``.  This returns a\npromise for 
10.\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.fcall(function () {\n    return 
10;\n});\n```\n\nYou can also use ``fcall`` to get a promise for an 
exception.\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.fcall(function () {\n    throw new 
Error(\"Can't do it\");\n});\n```\n\nAs the name implies, ``fcall`` can call 
functions, or even promised\nfunctions.  This uses the ``eventualAdd``
  function above to add two\nnumbers.\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
Q.fcall(eventualAdd, 2, 2);\n```\n\n\n#### Using Deferreds\n\nIf you have to 
interface with asynchronous functions that are callback-based\ninstead of 
promise-based, Q provides a few shortcuts (like ``Q.nfcall`` and\nfriends). But 
much of the time, the solution will be to use 
*deferreds*.\n\n```javascript\nvar deferred = 
Q.defer();\nFS.readFile(\"foo.txt\", \"utf-8\", function (error, text) {\n    
if (error) {\n        deferred.reject(new Error(error));\n    } else {\n        
deferred.resolve(text);\n    }\n});\nreturn deferred.promise;\n```\n\nNote that 
a deferred can be resolved with a value or a promise.  The\n``reject`` function 
is a shorthand for resolving with a rejected\npromise.\n\n```javascript\n// 
this:\ndeferred.reject(new Error(\"Can't do it\"));\n\n// is shorthand 
for:\nvar rejection = Q.fcall(function () {\n    throw new Error(\"Can't do 
it\");\n});\ndeferred.resolve(rejection);\n```\n\nThis is a simplified 
 implementation of ``Q.delay``.\n\n```javascript\nfunction delay(ms) {\n    var 
deferred = Q.defer();\n    setTimeout(deferred.resolve, ms);\n    return 
deferred.promise;\n}\n```\n\nThis is a simplified implementation of 
``Q.timeout``\n\n```javascript\nfunction timeout(promise, ms) {\n    var 
deferred = Q.defer();\n    Q.when(promise, deferred.resolve);\n    
delay(ms).then(function () {\n        deferred.reject(new Error(\"Timed 
out\"));\n    });\n    return deferred.promise;\n}\n```\n\nFinally, you can 
send a progress notification to the promise with\n``deferred.notify``.\n\nFor 
illustration, this is a wrapper for XML HTTP requests in the browser. 
Note\nthat a more [thorough][XHR] implementation would be in order in 
practice.\n\n[XHR]: 
https://github.com/montagejs/mr/blob/71e8df99bb4f0584985accd6f2801ef3015b9763/browser.js#L29-L73\n\n```javascript\nfunction
 requestOkText(url) {\n    var request = new XMLHttpRequest();\n    var 
deferred = Q.defer();\n\n    request.open(\"GET\", url, 
 true);\n    request.onload = onload;\n    request.onerror = onerror;\n    
request.onprogress = onprogress;\n    request.send();\n\n    function onload() 
{\n        if (request.status === 200) {\n            
deferred.resolve(request.responseText);\n        } else {\n            
deferred.reject(new Error(\"Status code was \" + request.status));\n        }\n 
   }\n\n    function onerror() {\n        deferred.reject(new Error(\"Can't XHR 
\" + JSON.stringify(url)));\n    }\n\n    function onprogress(event) {\n        
deferred.notify(event.loaded / event.total);\n    }\n\n    return 
deferred.promise;\n}\n```\n\nBelow is an example of how to use this 
``requestOkText`` 
function:\n\n```javascript\nrequestOkText(\"http://localhost:3000\";)\n.then(function
 (responseText) {\n    // If the HTTP response returns 200 OK, log the response 
text.\n    console.log(responseText);\n}, function (error) {\n    // If there's 
an error or a non-200 status code, log the error.\n    
console.error(error);\n}, fu
 nction (progress) {\n    // Log the progress as it comes in.\n    
console.log(\"Request progress: \" + Math.round(progress * 100) + 
\"%\");\n});\n```\n\n#### Using `Q.Promise`\n\nThis is an alternative 
promise-creation API that has the same power as\nthe deferred concept, but 
without introducing another conceptual entity.\n\nRewriting the `requestOkText` 
example above using `Q.Promise`:\n\n```javascript\nfunction requestOkText(url) 
{\n    return Q.Promise(function(resolve, reject, notify) {\n        var 
request = new XMLHttpRequest();\n\n        request.open(\"GET\", url, true);\n  
      request.onload = onload;\n        request.onerror = onerror;\n        
request.onprogress = onprogress;\n        request.send();\n\n        function 
onload() {\n            if (request.status === 200) {\n                
resolve(request.responseText);\n            } else {\n                
reject(new Error(\"Status code was \" + request.status));\n            }\n      
  }\n\n        function onerror()
  {\n            reject(new Error(\"Can't XHR \" + JSON.stringify(url)));\n     
   }\n\n        function onprogress(event) {\n            notify(event.loaded / 
event.total);\n        }\n    });\n}\n```\n\nIf `requestOkText` were to throw 
an exception, the returned promise would be\nrejected with that thrown 
exception as the rejection reason.\n\n### The Middle\n\nIf you are using a 
function that may return a promise, but just might\nreturn a value if it 
doesn’t need to defer, you can use the “static”\nmethods of the Q 
library.\n\nThe ``when`` function is the static equivalent for 
``then``.\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.when(valueOrPromise, function (value) 
{\n}, function (error) {\n});\n```\n\nAll of the other methods on a promise 
have static analogs with the\nsame name.\n\nThe following are 
equivalent:\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.all([a, 
b]);\n```\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.fcall(function () {\n    return [a, 
b];\n})\n.all();\n```\n\nWhen working with promises provided by other lib
 raries, you should\nconvert it to a Q promise.  Not all promise libraries make 
the same\nguarantees as Q and certainly don’t provide all of the same 
methods.\nMost libraries only provide a partially functional ``then`` 
method.\nThis thankfully is all we need to turn them into vibrant Q 
promises.\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q($.ajax(...))\n.then(function () 
{\n});\n```\n\nIf there is any chance that the promise you receive is not a Q 
promise\nas provided by your library, you should wrap it using a Q 
function.\nYou can even use ``Q.invoke`` as a 
shorthand.\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.invoke($, 'ajax', ...)\n.then(function () 
{\n});\n```\n\n\n### Over the Wire\n\nA promise can serve as a proxy for 
another object, even a remote\nobject.  There are methods that allow you to 
optimistically manipulate\nproperties or call functions.  All of these 
interactions return\npromises, so they can be chained.\n\n```\ndirect 
manipulation         using a promise as a proxy\n--------------------------  -
 ------------------------------\nvalue.foo                   
promise.get(\"foo\")\nvalue.foo = value           promise.put(\"foo\", 
value)\ndelete value.foo            promise.del(\"foo\")\nvalue.foo(...args)    
      promise.post(\"foo\", [args])\nvalue.foo(...args)          
promise.invoke(\"foo\", ...args)\nvalue(...args)              
promise.fapply([args])\nvalue(...args)              
promise.fcall(...args)\n```\n\nIf the promise is a proxy for a remote object, 
you can shave\nround-trips by using these functions instead of ``then``.  To 
take\nadvantage of promises for remote objects, check out 
[Q-Connection][].\n\n[Q-Connection]: 
https://github.com/kriskowal/q-connection\n\nEven in the case of non-remote 
objects, these methods can be used as\nshorthand for particularly-simple 
fulfillment handlers. For example, you\ncan replace\n\n```javascript\nreturn 
Q.fcall(function () {\n    return [{ foo: \"bar\" }, { foo: \"baz\" 
}];\n})\n.then(function (value) {\n    return value[0].foo;\n})
 ;\n```\n\nwith\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.fcall(function () {\n    return [{ 
foo: \"bar\" }, { foo: \"baz\" }];\n})\n.get(0)\n.get(\"foo\");\n```\n\n\n### 
Adapting Node\n\nIf you're working with functions that make use of the Node.js 
callback pattern,\nwhere callbacks are in the form of `function(err, result)`, 
Q provides a few\nuseful utility functions for converting between them. The 
most straightforward\nare probably `Q.nfcall` and `Q.nfapply` (\"Node function 
call/apply\") for calling\nNode.js-style functions and getting back a 
promise:\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.nfcall(FS.readFile, \"foo.txt\", 
\"utf-8\");\nreturn Q.nfapply(FS.readFile, [\"foo.txt\", 
\"utf-8\"]);\n```\n\nIf you are working with methods, instead of simple 
functions, you can easily\nrun in to the usual problems where passing a method 
to another function—like\n`Q.nfcall`—\"un-binds\" the method from its 
owner. To avoid this, you can either\nuse `Function.prototype.bind` or some 
nice shortcut methods we provide
 :\n\n```javascript\nreturn Q.ninvoke(redisClient, \"get\", 
\"user:1:id\");\nreturn Q.npost(redisClient, \"get\", 
[\"user:1:id\"]);\n```\n\nYou can also create reusable wrappers with 
`Q.denodeify` or `Q.nbind`:\n\n```javascript\nvar readFile = 
Q.denodeify(FS.readFile);\nreturn readFile(\"foo.txt\", \"utf-8\");\n\nvar 
redisClientGet = Q.nbind(redisClient.get, redisClient);\nreturn 
redisClientGet(\"user:1:id\");\n```\n\nFinally, if you're working with raw 
deferred objects, there is a\n`makeNodeResolver` method on deferreds that can 
be handy:\n\n```javascript\nvar deferred = Q.defer();\nFS.readFile(\"foo.txt\", 
\"utf-8\", deferred.makeNodeResolver());\nreturn deferred.promise;\n```\n\n### 
Long Stack Traces\n\nQ comes with optional support for “long stack traces,” 
wherein the `stack`\nproperty of `Error` rejection reasons is rewritten to be 
traced along\nasynchronous jumps instead of stopping at the most recent one. As 
an example:\n\n```js\nfunction theDepthsOfMyProgram() {\n  Q.dela
 y(100).done(function explode() {\n    throw new Error(\"boo!\");\n  
});\n}\n\ntheDepthsOfMyProgram();\n```\n\nusually would give a rather unhelpful 
stack trace looking something like\n\n```\nError: boo!\n    at explode 
(/path/to/test.js:3:11)\n    at _fulfilled (/path/to/test.js:q:54)\n    at 
resolvedValue.promiseDispatch.done (/path/to/q.js:823:30)\n    at 
makePromise.promise.promiseDispatch (/path/to/q.js:496:13)\n    at pending 
(/path/to/q.js:397:39)\n    at 
process.startup.processNextTick.process._tickCallback 
(node.js:244:9)\n```\n\nBut, if you turn this feature on by 
setting\n\n```js\nQ.longStackSupport = true;\n```\n\nthen the above code gives 
a nice stack trace to the tune of\n\n```\nError: boo!\n    at explode 
(/path/to/test.js:3:11)\nFrom previous event:\n    at theDepthsOfMyProgram 
(/path/to/test.js:2:16)\n    at Object.<anonymous> 
(/path/to/test.js:7:1)\n```\n\nNote how you can see the function that triggered 
the async operation in the\nstack trace! This is very helpful 
 for debugging, as otherwise you end up getting\nonly the first line, plus a 
bunch of Q internals, with no sign of where the\noperation started.\n\nIn 
node.js, this feature can also be enabled through the Q_DEBUG 
environment\nvariable:\n\n```\nQ_DEBUG=1 node server.js\n```\n\nThis will 
enable long stack support in every instance of Q.\n\nThis feature does come 
with somewhat-serious performance and memory overhead,\nhowever. If you're 
working with lots of promises, or trying to scale a server\nto many users, you 
should probably keep it off. But in development, go for it!\n\n## Tests\n\nYou

-# sax js
-
-A sax-style parser for XML and HTML.
-
-Designed with [node](http://nodejs.org/) in mind, but should work fine in
-the browser or other CommonJS implementations.
-
-## What This Is
-
-* A very simple tool to parse through an XML string.
-* A stepping stone to a streaming HTML parser.
-* A handy way to deal with RSS and other mostly-ok-but-kinda-broken XML 
-  docs.
-
-## What This Is (probably) Not
-
-* An HTML Parser - That's a fine goal, but this isn't it.  It's just
-  XML.
-* A DOM Builder - You can use it to build an object model out of XML,
-  but it doesn't do that out of the box.
-* XSLT - No DOM = no querying.
-* 100% Compliant with (some other SAX implementation) - Most SAX
-  implementations are in Java and do a lot more than this does.
-* An XML Validator - It does a little validation when in strict mode, but
-  not much.
-* A Schema-Aware XSD Thing - Schemas are an exercise in fetishistic 
-  masochism.
-* A DTD-aware Thing - Fetching DTDs is a much bigger job.
-
-## Regarding `<!DOCTYPE`s and `<!ENTITY`s
-
-The parser will handle the basic XML entities in text nodes and attribute
-values: `&amp; &lt; &gt; &apos; &quot;`. It's possible to define additional
-entities in XML by putting them in the DTD. This parser doesn't do anything
-with that. If you want to listen to the `ondoctype` event, and then fetch
-the doctypes, and read the entities and add them to `parser.ENTITIES`, then
-be my guest.
-
-Unknown entities will fail in strict mode, and in loose mode, will pass
-through unmolested.
-
-## Usage
-
-    var sax = require("./lib/sax"),
-      strict = true, // set to false for html-mode
-      parser = sax.parser(strict);
-
-    parser.onerror = function (e) {
-      // an error happened.
-    };
-    parser.ontext = function (t) {
-      // got some text.  t is the string of text.
-    };
-    parser.onopentag = function (node) {
-      // opened a tag.  node has "name" and "attributes"
-    };
-    parser.onattribute = function (attr) {
-      // an attribute.  attr has "name" and "value"
-    };
-    parser.onend = function () {
-      // parser stream is done, and ready to have more stuff written to it.
-    };
-
-    parser.write('<xml>Hello, <who name="world">world</who>!</xml>').close();
-
-    // stream usage
-    // takes the same options as the parser
-    var saxStream = require("sax").createStream(strict, options)
-    saxStream.on("error", function (e) {
-      // unhandled errors will throw, since this is a proper node
-      // event emitter.
-      console.error("error!", e)
-      // clear the error
-      this._parser.error = null
-      this._parser.resume()
-    })
-    saxStream.on("opentag", function (node) {
-      // same object as above
-    })
-    // pipe is supported, and it's readable/writable
-    // same chunks coming in also go out.
-    fs.createReadStream("file.xml")
-      .pipe(saxStream)
-      .pipe(fs.createReadStream("file-copy.xml"))
-
-
-
-## Arguments
-
-Pass the following arguments to the parser function.  All are optional.
-
-`strict` - Boolean. Whether or not to be a jerk. Default: `false`.
-
-`opt` - Object bag of settings regarding string formatting.  All default to 
`false`.
-
-Settings supported:
-
-* `trim` - Boolean. Whether or not to trim text and comment nodes.
-* `normalize` - Boolean. If true, then turn any whitespace into a single
-  space.
-* `lowercasetags` - Boolean. If true, then lowercase tags in loose mode, 
-  rather than uppercasing them.
-* `xmlns` - Boolean. If true, then namespaces are supported.
-
-## Methods
-
-`write` - Write bytes onto the stream. You don't have to do this all at
-once. You can keep writing as much as you want.
-
-`close` - Close the stream. Once closed, no more data may be written until
-it is done processing the buffer, which is signaled by the `end` event.
-
-`resume` - To gracefully handle errors, assign a listener to the `error`
-event. Then, when the error is taken care of, you can call `resume` to
-continue parsing. Otherwise, the parser will not continue while in an error
-state.
-
-## Members
-
-At all times, the parser object will have the following members:
-
-`line`, `column`, `position` - Indications of the position in the XML
-document where the parser currently is looking.
-
-`startTagPosition` - Indicates the position where the current tag starts.
-
-`closed` - Boolean indicating whether or not the parser can be written to.
-If it's `true`, then wait for the `ready` event to write again.
-
-`strict` - Boolean indicating whether or not the parser is a jerk.
-
-`opt` - Any options passed into the constructor.
-
-`tag` - The current tag being dealt with.
-
-And a bunch of other stuff that you probably shouldn't touch.
-
-## Events
-
-All events emit with a single argument. To listen to an event, assign a
-function to `on<eventname>`. Functions get executed in the this-context of
-the parser object. The list of supported events are also in the exported
-`EVENTS` array.
-
-When using the stream interface, assign handlers using the EventEmitter
-`on` function in the normal fashion.
-
-`error` - Indication that something bad happened. The error will be hanging
-out on `parser.error`, and must be deleted before parsing can continue. By
-listening to this event, you can keep an eye on that kind of stuff. Note:
-this happens *much* more in strict mode. Argument: instance of `Error`.
-
-`text` - Text node. Argument: string of text.
-
-`doctype` - The `<!DOCTYPE` declaration. Argument: doctype string.
-
-`processinginstruction` - Stuff like `<?xml foo="blerg" ?>`. Argument:
-object with `name` and `body` members. Attributes are not parsed, as
-processing instructions have implementation dependent semantics.
-
-`sgmldeclaration` - Random SGML declarations. Stuff like `<!ENTITY p>`
-would trigger this kind of event. This is a weird thing to support, so it
-might go away at some point. SAX isn't intended to be used to parse SGML,
-after all.
-
-`opentag` - An opening tag. Argument: object with `name` and `attributes`.
-In non-strict mode, tag names are uppercased, unless the `lowercasetags`
-option is set.  If the `xmlns` option is set, then it will contain
-namespace binding information on the `ns` member, and will have a
-`local`, `prefix`, and `uri` member.
-
-`closetag` - A closing tag. In loose mode, tags are auto-closed if their
-parent closes. In strict mode, well-formedness is enforced. Note that
-self-closing tags will have `closeTag` emitted immediately after `openTag`.
-Argument: tag name.
-
-`attribute` - An attribute node.  Argument: object with `name` and `value`,
-and also namespace information if the `xmlns` option flag is set.
-
-`comment` - A comment node.  Argument: the string of the comment.
-
-`opencdata` - The opening tag of a `<![CDATA[` block.
-
-`cdata` - The text of a `<![CDATA[` block. Since `<![CDATA[` blocks can get
-quite large, this event may fire multiple times for a single block, if it
-is broken up into multiple `write()`s. Argument: the string of random
-character data.
-
-`closecdata` - The closing tag (`]]>`) of a `<![CDATA[` block.
-
-`opennamespace` - If the `xmlns` option is set, then this event will
-signal the start of a new namespace binding.
-
-`closenamespace` - If the `xmlns` option is set, then this event will
-signal the end of a namespace binding.
-
-`end` - Indication that the closed stream has ended.
-
-`ready` - Indication that the stream has reset, and is ready to be written
-to.
-
-`noscript` - In non-strict mode, `<script>` tags trigger a `"script"`
-event, and their contents are not checked for special xml characters.
-If you pass `noscript: true`, then this behavior is suppressed.
-
-## Reporting Problems
-
-It's best to write a failing test if you find an issue.  I will always
-accept pull requests with failing tests if they demonstrate intended
-behavior, but it is very hard to figure out what issue you're describing
-without a test.  Writing a test is also the best way for you yourself
-to figure out if you really understand the issue you think you have with
-sax-js.
