Usage with sails.js

I’m trying to use this api with sails.js, but the response return the trends response data. The controller function looks like this:

googleTrends.interestOverTime({keyword: [req.param('keyword')]})
		.then(function(results){
		 	return res.send(results);
		})
		.catch(function(err){
		  return res.json(err);
		});

Returns this:

Is there any way to return the data as json object?

Ohh it looks like there is a return in the first character causing the error. Until I get a fix up, you could JSON.parse(results.slice(1)) (or you might need to .slice(2)). Does that work for you?

Closing this for now. I think for now we should continue to just pass a string and have the user modify it as they see fit. If we start slicing characters from the string and validating that it is proper JSON, it will be harder to maintain (whenever the api changes we would need to check that it hasn’t changed) and if we say that it is not valid JSON, the user will get nothing back when in reality there may be data available in the string that is formatted slightly differently than we were expecting.
