Options

$3

If true, instead of emitting an error and cancelling the stream when an invalid line is proccessed, an invalid-line event is emitted with the same error. This is very useful when processing text that have mixed plain text and json data.

Example:

`js
var jsonlines = require('jsonlines')
var parser = jsonlines.parse({ emitInvalidLines: true })

parser.on('data', function (data) {
console.log('Got json:', data)
})

parser.on('invalid-line', function (err) {
console.log('Got text:', err.source)
})

parser.write('{ "test": "This is a test!" }\n')
parser.write('This is some plain text\n')
parser.write('{ "jsonlines": "is awesome" }')
parser.end()
`

Output:

`text
Got json: { test: 'This is a test!' }
Got text: This is some plain text
Got json: { jsonlines: 'is awesome' }
