CSV parsing implementing the Node.js `stream.Transform` API

[![Build Status](https://api.travis-ci.org/adaltas/node-csv-parse.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/#!/adaltas/node-csv-parse)

Part of the [CSV module](https://csv.js.org/), this project is a parser converting CSV text input into arrays or objects. It implements the Node.js [`stream.Transform` API](http://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_class_stream_transform). It also provides a simple callback-based API for convenience. It is both extremely easy to use and powerful. It was first released in 2010 and is used against big data sets by a large community.
