JSON5 is an extension to the popular [JSON] file format that aims to be
|
|||
|
easier to **write and maintain _by hand_ (e.g. for config files)**.
|
|||
|
It is _not intended_ to be used for machine-to-machine communication.
|
|||
|
(Keep using JSON or other file formats for that. 🙂)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
JSON5 was started in 2012, and as of 2022, now gets **[>65M downloads/week](https://www.npmjs.com/package/json5)**,
|
|||
|
ranks in the **[top 0.1%](https://gist.github.com/anvaka/8e8fa57c7ee1350e3491)** of the most depended-upon packages on npm,
|
|||
|
and has been adopted by major projects like
|
|||
|
**[Chromium](https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/renderer/platform/runtime_enabled_features.json5;drc=5de823b36e68fd99009a29281b17bc3a1d6b329c),
|
|||
|
[Next.js](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/b88f20c90bf4659b8ad5cb2a27956005eac2c7e8/packages/next/lib/find-config.ts#L43-L46),
|
|||
|
[Babel](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/config-files#supported-file-extensions),
|
|||
|
[Retool](https://community.retool.com/t/i-am-attempting-to-append-several-text-fields-to-a-google-sheet-but-receiving-a-json5-invalid-character-error/7626),
|
|||
|
[WebStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/json.html),
|
|||
|
and [more](https://github.com/json5/json5/wiki/In-the-Wild)**.
|
|||
|
It's also natively supported on **[Apple platforms](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/jsondecoder/3766916-allowsjson5)**
|
|||
|
like **MacOS** and **iOS**.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Formally, the **[JSON5 Data Interchange Format](https://spec.json5.org/)** is a superset of JSON
|
|||
|
(so valid JSON files will always be valid JSON5 files)
|
|||
|
that expands its syntax to include some productions from [ECMAScript 5.1] (ES5).
|
|||
|
It's also a strict _subset_ of ES5, so valid JSON5 files will always be valid ES5.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This JavaScript library is a reference implementation for JSON5 parsing and serialization,
|
|||
|
and is directly used in many of the popular projects mentioned above
|
|||
|
(where e.g. extreme performance isn't necessary),
|
|||
|
but others have created [many other libraries](https://github.com/json5/json5/wiki/In-the-Wild)
|
|||
|
across many other platforms.

|
|||
|
specification](https://json5.github.io/json5-spec/).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Installation and Usage
|
|||
|
### Node.js
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
npm install json5
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### CommonJS
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
const JSON5 = require('json5')
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Modules
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
import JSON5 from 'json5'
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Browsers
|
|||
|
#### UMD
|
|||
|
```html
|
|||
|
<!-- This will create a global `JSON5` variable. -->
|
|||
|
<script src="https://unpkg.com/json5@2/dist/index.min.js"></script>
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Modules
|
|||
|
```html
|
|||
|
<script type="module">
|
|||
|
import JSON5 from 'https://unpkg.com/json5@2/dist/index.min.mjs'
|
|||
|
</script>
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## API
|
|||
|
The JSON5 API is compatible with the [JSON API].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[JSON API]:
|
|||
|
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### JSON5.parse()
|
|||
|
Parses a JSON5 string, constructing the JavaScript value or object described by
|
|||
|
the string. An optional reviver function can be provided to perform a
|
|||
|
transformation on the resulting object before it is returned.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Syntax
|
|||
|
JSON5.parse(text[, reviver])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Parameters
|
|||
|
- `text`: The string to parse as JSON5.
|
|||
|
- `reviver`: If a function, this prescribes how the value originally produced by
|
|||
|
parsing is transformed, before being returned.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Return value
|
|||
|
The object corresponding to the given JSON5 text.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### JSON5.stringify()
|
|||
|
Converts a JavaScript value to a JSON5 string, optionally replacing values if a
|
|||
|
replacer function is specified, or optionally including only the specified
|
|||
|
properties if a replacer array is specified.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Syntax
|
|||
|
JSON5.stringify(value[, replacer[, space]])
|
|||
|
JSON5.stringify(value[, options])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Parameters
|
|||
|
- `value`: The value to convert to a JSON5 string.
|
|||
|
- `replacer`: A function that alters the behavior of the stringification
|
|||
|
process, or an array of String and Number objects that serve as a whitelist
|
|||
|
for selecting/filtering the properties of the value object to be included in
|
|||
|
the JSON5 string. If this value is null or not provided, all properties of the
|
|||
|
object are included in the resulting JSON5 string.
|
|||
|
- `space`: A String or Number object that's used to insert white space into the
|
|||
|
output JSON5 string for readability purposes. If this is a Number, it
|
|||
|
indicates the number of space characters to use as white space; this number is
|
|||
|
capped at 10 (if it is greater, the value is just 10). Values less than 1
|
|||
|
indicate that no space should be used. If this is a String, the string (or the
|
|||
|
first 10 characters of the string, if it's longer than that) is used as white
|
|||
|
space. If this parameter is not provided (or is null), no white space is used.
|
|||
|
If white space is used, trailing commas will be used in objects and arrays.
|
|||
|
- `options`: An object with the following properties:
|
|||
|
- `replacer`: Same as the `replacer` parameter.
|
|||
|
- `space`: Same as the `space` parameter.
|
|||
|
- `quote`: A String representing the quote character to use when serializing
|
|||
|
strings.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Return value
|
|||
|
A JSON5 string representing the value.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Node.js `require()` JSON5 files
|
|||
|
When using Node.js, you can `require()` JSON5 files by adding the following
|
|||
|
statement.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
require('json5/lib/register')
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Then you can load a JSON5 file with a Node.js `require()` statement. For
|
|||
|
example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
const config = require('./config.json5')
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## CLI
|
|||
|
Since JSON is more widely used than JSON5, this package includes a CLI for
|
|||
|
converting JSON5 to JSON and for validating the syntax of JSON5 documents.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Installation
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
npm install --global json5
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Usage
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
json5 [options] <file>
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If `<file>` is not provided, then STDIN is used.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Options:
|
|||
|
- `-s`, `--space`: The number of spaces to indent or `t` for tabs
|
|||
|
- `-o`, `--out-file [file]`: Output to the specified file, otherwise STDOUT
|
|||
|
- `-v`, `--validate`: Validate JSON5 but do not output JSON
|
|||
|
- `-V`, `--version`: Output the version number
|
|||
|
- `-h`, `--help`: Output usage information
|
|||

He wrote a [blog post](https://aseemk.substack.com/p/ignore-the-f-ing-haters-json5)

about the journey and lessons learned 10 years in.

[Michael Bolin](http://bolinfest.com/) independently arrived at and published

some of these same ideas with awesome explanations and detail. Recommended

[Douglas Crockford](http://www.crockford.com/) of course designed and built
|
|||
|
JSON, but his state machine diagrams on the [JSON website](http://json.org/), as
|
|||
|
cheesy as it may sound, gave us motivation and confidence that building a new
|
|||
|
parser to implement these ideas was within reach! The original
|
|||
|
implementation of JSON5 was also modeled directly off of Doug’s open-source
|
|||
|
[json_parse.js] parser. We’re grateful for that clean and well-documented
|

code.
