cbor-js
=======

The Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) data format (RFC 7049) implemented in pure JavaScript.



API
---

The CBOR-object provides the following two functions:

CBOR.decode(data)
> Take the ArrayBuffer object data and return it decoded as a JavaScript object.

CBOR.encode(data)
> Take the JavaScript object data and return it encoded as a ArrayBuffer object.

Usage
-----

Include cbor.js in your or HTML page:
``html

`

Then you can use it via the CBOR-object in your code:
`javascript
var initial = { Hello: "World" };
var encoded = CBOR.encode(initial);
var decoded = CBOR.decode(encoded);
`
After running this example initial and decoded represent the same value.

The API was designed to play well with the WebSocket object in the browser:
`javascript
var websocket = new WebSocket(url);
websocket.binaryType = "arraybuffer";
...
websocket.onmessage = function(event) {
var message = CBOR.decode(event.data);
};
...
websocket.send(CBOR.encode(message));
