bootleg.utils.classes.aliasmention_trie module

bootleg.utils.classes.comment_json module

JSON with comments class.

An example of how to remove comments and trailing commas from JSON before parsing. You only need the two functions below, remove_comments() and remove_trailing_commas() to accomplish this. This script serves as an example of how to use them but feel free to just copy & paste them into your own code/projects. Usage:: json_cleaner.py some_file.json Alternatively, you can pipe JSON into this script and it’ll clean it up:: cat some_file.json | json_cleaner.py Why would you do this? So you can have human-generated .json files (say, for configuration) that include comments and, really, who wants to deal with catching all those trailing commas that might be present? Here’s an example of a file that will be successfully cleaned up and JSON-parseable:

FYI: This script will also pretty-print the JSON after it’s cleaned up (if using it from the command line) with an indentation level of 4 (that is, four spaces).

bootleg.utils.classes.comment_json.remove_comments(json_like)

    "baz": "blah" /* Multi-line
    Comment */
}'''
>>> remove_comments('{"foo":"bar","baz":"blah",}')
'{\n    "foo":"bar",\n    "baz":"blah"\n}'

bootleg.utils.classes.comment_json.remove_trailing_commas(json_like)

Remove trailing commas from json_like and returns the result.

Example:

>>> remove_trailing_commas('{"foo":"bar","baz":["blah",],}')
'{"foo":"bar","baz":["blah"]}'
