Laxson: lax JSON

Sometimes it is useful to parse non-compliant JSON for whatever reason:

• single quoted strings
• 0x00 hexadecimal numbers
• trailing commas
• comments
• missing delimiters/quotes/typos
• non-quoted property names

Laxson uses TypeScript fault-tolerant parser, and processes generated AST back to objects.

Parsing uses no unsafe eval and such, so even though it's lax, it's still safe. Except data might be a bit garbage, if input is too garbled.

var LAXSON = require('laxson');
console.log(JSON.stringify(LAXSON.parse('{ apple: [1, 0x2, 3_000] }')));
