Hjson, the Human JSON. A configuration file format for humans. Relaxed syntax, fewer mistakes, more comments.
Hjson works with Python 2.5+ and Python 3.3+ (based on simplejson)
Installation
pip install hjson
or download from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hjson
Commandline
Usage: hjson [options] hjson [options] <input> hjson (-h | --help) hjson (-V | --version) Options: -h --help Show this screen. -j Output as formatted JSON. -c Output as JSON. -V --version Show version.
E.g. echo '{"json":"obj"}' | hjson
Usage
import hjsonDecoding Hjson
text = """{
foo: a
bar: 1
}"""
hjson.loads(text)Result:
OrderedDict([('foo', 'a'), ('bar', 1)])Encoding Python object hierarchies
hjson.dumps({'foo': 'text', 'bar': (1, 2)})Result:
{
foo: text
bar:
[
1
2
]
}
Encoding as JSON
Note that this is probably not as performant as the simplejson version.
hjson.dumpsJSON(['foo', {'bar': ('baz', None, 1.0, 2)}])Result: '["foo", {"bar": ["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]'
