Range header field parser.

## Installation

```
$ npm install range-parser
```

## API

```js
var parseRange = require('range-parser')
```

### parseRange(size, header, options)

Parse the given `header` string where `size` is the maximum size of the resource.
An array of ranges will be returned or negative numbers indicating an error parsing.

  * `-2` signals a malformed header string
  * `-1` signals an unsatisfiable range

```js
// parse header from request
var range = parseRange(size, req.headers.range)

// the type of the range
if (range.type === 'bytes') {
  // the ranges
  range.forEach(function (r) {
    // do something with r.start and r.end
  })
}
```

#### Options

These properties are accepted in the options object.

##### combine

Specifies if overlapping & adjacent ranges should be combined, defaults to `false`.
When `true`, ranges will be combined and returned as if they were specified that
way in the header.

```js
parseRange(100, 'bytes=50-55,0-10,5-10,56-60', { combine: true })
// => [
//      { start: 0,  end: 10 },
//      { start: 50, end: 60 }
//    ]
```
