I am using the Request Module that found on npm, and I am wondering if there is an end event that i can bind to. The reason i'm asking is because i am requesting a JSON and i am getting an error if i try to use JSON.parse directly after i get the response. The code looks something like this.

var parseJSON = function(JSON, cb){

    var parsed = JSON.parse(JSON);
    cb(parsed);

};

request(url, function(error, response, body) {

    parseJSON(body, function(bodyObj){

        // do stuff with bodyObj...

    });
});

Trying to do this, gives the following error...

var parsed = JSON.parse(JSON);
                  ^
has no method 'parse'

The issue is that you're overriding the global JSON object.

This will work just fine:

var parseJSON = function(MyJSON, cb){

    var parsed = JSON.parse(MyJSON);
    cb(parsed);

};
