Tiny JSONC for Deno and browsers

An absurdly small JSONC parser.

This library works simply by using regexes to strip out comments first and trailing commas second, in order to account for a trailing comma followed by a comment, and then just passing the output to JSON.parse.

If you need additional APIs to manipulate JSONC, better error messages, or a full-blown parser, I'd recommend using jsonc-simple-parser instead.

Usage

import { JSONC } from "https://code4fukui.github.io/JSONC/JSONC.js";

const source = `
  { // This is an example
    "foo": 123,
    /* TRAILING COMMAS */
    "bar": [1, 2, 3,],
  }
`;

const result = {
  foo: 123,
  bar: [1, 2, 3]
};

JSONC.parse(source); // => returns an object that's deeply equal to `result`
