Redis Protocol Parser for Node.js

redis-parser is a high-performance JavaScript implementation of the Redis Serialization Protocol (RESP) parser, specifically designed for Node.js environments. It serves as the underlying parsing engine for popular Redis clients like node-redis and ioredis. The current stable version is 3.0.0. This library focuses on efficiently converting raw Redis protocol buffers into usable JavaScript data structures, supporting various RESP data types including strings, numbers, arrays, and errors. Its development prioritizes performance, especially for large data structures, and graceful handling of malformed input, making it a critical component for robust Redis client libraries. It also exports dedicated error classes for specific parsing and reply errors.
