Project description

A wrapper to JSON parsers allowing comments and multiline strings


Dependencies

Python 2.7, 3.3

Optional

ujson 1.30+


Description

JSON Comment allows to parse JSON files or strings with:

  • Single and Multi line comments

  • Multi line data strings

This package works with any JSON parser which supports:

  • load(fp, ...) to parse files

  • loads(s, ...) to parse strings

by adding a preprocessor to these calls.


Comments

  • # and ; are for single line comments

  • /* and */ enclose multiline comments

Inline comments are not supported


Multiline strings

Any string can be multiline, even object keys.

  • Multiline strings start and end with """, like in python

  • The preprocessor merges all lines to a single standard string

  • A single trailing space is kept, if present

  • New line is not kept. To hard code new lines in the string, use \\n


Usage

Install

pip install jsoncomment

OR

  • Download source

  • python setup.py install

Call Example

import json
from jsoncomment import JsonComment

string = "[]"
parser = JsonComment(json)
parsed_object = parser.loads(string)

Examples

Added in the /examples directory
