After some messing around with JS, I found a workable solution with minimal additional code. AFter stripping the callback from the query and storing the function value, I had to explicitly build the return string for JSONP requests.
exports.handle = function(db) {
return function(req, res) {
//Determine if URL implements JSONP
var foundCallback = req.query.callback;
var callbackVar;
//If asking for JSONP, determine the callback function name and delete it from the map
if (foundCallback){
callbackVar = req.query.callback;
delete req.query.callback
}
// Send request
db.get(req.params.coll).find(req.query, {fields:{_id:0}}, function(e,docs) {
if (e) throw e;
//If callback, send function name and query results back, else use express JSON built in
if (foundCallback)
res.send('typeof ' + callbackVar + ' === \'function\' && ' + callbackVar + '(' + JSON.stringify(docs) + ');');
else
res.json(docs);
});
};
}
