Simple wrapper for using the vanilla _datajs_ library in Node applications.
I was looking for a simple way of consuming an OData feed from a Node app.
First thing that came to my mind was using the "official" _datajs_ library as I used it once before in a browser app. But the existing datajs npm package is pretty aged. So I was looking for some way of using the current _datajs_ release.
## Installation
```
npm install datajs_vanilla
```
## Usage
```
var OData = require('datajs').OData;
var url = "http://live.ineta.org/InetaLiveService.svc/LiveGroups(1)";
OData.read(url, function (data) {
console.debug(data['Name']); //-> UT Dallas .NET UG
});
```
## Credits
where they belong.
[This stackoverflow question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5171213/load-vanilla-javascript-libraries-into-node-js) gave me the idea on how to use the datajs browser library in a Node environment.
