Any way to upload CSON files via jQuery?

I'm wondering if there is a way to use something like $.getJSON()

to download a CSON file from the server. I don't even know where to start. I've been Googling around but haven't found anything solid. Node.js has a CSON library that it can use:

data = CSON.parseFileSync('test.cson')

      

        
        
        
      

    

I can of course use the client side.
