load-jsonic-sync

A simple synchronous JSON-with-comments loader that gives good explanations of where failures come from.

It accepts a superset of JSON including Javscript style comments (/* */ and //).

Use

var loadJsonicSync = require('load-jsonic-sync');
 
var result = loadJsonicSync('file.json');

loadJsonicSync will throw an error if loading fails. The error will show the filename, for context, and error.cause() will show the original exception which includes the position for parse errors, and the underlying fs error if there is a problem reading the file.
