strip-json-comments Build Status

Strip comments from JSON. Lets you use comments in your JSON files!

This is now possible:

js { // rainbows "unicorn": /* ❤ */ "cake" }

It will replace single-line comments // and multi-line comments /**/ with whitespace. This allows JSON error positions to remain as close as possible to the original source.

Also available as a gulp/grunt/broccoli plugin.

Install

$ npm install --save strip-json-comments

Usage

```js const json = '{/rainbows/"unicorn":"cake"}';

JSON.parse(stripJsonComments(json)); //=> {unicorn: 'cake'} ```
