jsompile v1.0.0

What's this?

This tool converts js to json.

Some tools require json file for config file. However, json format disallow expressions and comments.

We can write config in js file with comments using this tool.

Example

const os = require("os")

module.exports = {
	/*
	 We can use comment!
	 Double quotes of each key are unnecessary.
	*/
	a: 1,
	b: {
		c: "abc",
		// Seconds per a day
		// This way of writing is easy to change value.
		d: 60 * 60 * 24,
	},
	// This should commented out when ****.
	// e: false,
	
	// Switch flag for each PC.
	f: os.hostname() === "XXXXX",
}

This file conveted as below:

{
  "a": 1,
  "b": {
    "c": "abc",
    "d": 86400
  },
  "f": false
}

Usage

jsompile config.js --output config.json

The result is written to stdout if --ouput does not specified.
