JSON with comments for GO

  • Decodes a "commented json" to "json". Provided, the input must be a valid jsonc document.
  • Supports io.Reader
  • With this, we can use commented json files as configuration for go applications.

Inspired by muhammadmuzzammil1998

{
	/*
        some block comment
  */
	"string": "foo", // a string
	"bool": false, // a boolean
	"number": 42, // a number
	// "object":{
	//     "key":"val"
	// },
	"array": [
		// example of an array
		1,
		2,
		3
	]
}

Gets converted to (spaces omitted)

{ "string": "foo", "bool": false, "number": 42, "array": [1, 2, 3] }

Motivation

jsonc is great. But this package provides significant performance improvements and simple API to use it with standard library. See benchmarks

Usage

Get this package

go get github.com/akshaybharambe14/go-jsonc

Benchmarks

Here is the performance comparison as compared to JSONC

go-jsonc avoids allocations to heap to gain the performance.
