get a variable value about spark-server

[AntonPuko]

Thanks, @durielz. with return newBuffer.toString(); - fromBinary() returns stringified bufferReader object, instead of actual string from buffer ^.^, so you see '[object object]'. In the old code, there were like you do: return buffer.toString();...so nice catch.
will be fixed in that PR: Brewskey/spark-protocol#14

Hi, could you see in debugger or console.log what [object Object] actually is? I can't reproduce. I get { result: varValue } at least for INT.

[durielz]

if i console.log the varValue i get [object Object] again. With the old spark-server i get:
{ "cmd": "VarReturn", "name": "config", "result": "{ \"t_threshold\": \"24\", \"flow_threshold\": \"50\" }", "coreInfo": { "connected": true } }

Your code seems to work in the same way as the old one, so i don't understand why but if i change the line 318 in lib/Messages.js in protocol
return newBuffer.toString();
to
return buffer.toString();
so without process data with BufferReader, it works.

hope it can help you

Using spark-protocol (commit ecd803d), I'm still seeing the { "result": "[object Object]" } whenever I try to pull a string result from a variable. Int values come through normally.

hm. just checked. works ok with strings for me.
could you check. what do you have as bufferReader.buffer, when do calls, here:
https://github.com/Brewskey/spark-protocol/blob/master/src/lib/Messages.js#L312

Line 312 is: return bufferReader.buffer.toString();
