jsontyped

To support types in JSON.

Installation

npm i -s @allnulled/jsontyped

Importation

In node.js:

require("@allnulled/jsontyped");

In html:

<script src="node_modules/@allnulled/jsontyped/jsontyped.js"></script>

Usage

JsonTyped.parse(`"This could be a normal JSON"`);
JsonTyped.parse(`@message "This is another level of JSON"`);
JsonTyped.parse(`@deeper.types "This is a valid way of chaining ref types"`);
JsonTyped.parse(`@deeper/types/somewhere/else.js "This is also a valid way of chaining ref types"`);
JsonTyped.parse(`@file:///you/can/specify/protocol/too "This is also a valid way of chaining ref types"`);
JsonTyped.parse(`@http:///you/can/specify/protocol/too "This is also a valid way of chaining ref types"`);

Basically, any type supports this "prefix" in which you specify, with these symbols and normal variable-accepted js symbols [A-Za-z_$] +[0-9].

Then it always translate the types to:

{
  $protocol: null,
  $type: "message",
  $value: "This is another level of JSON"
}

Which is also quite readable. You can customize the output re-building the parser, by npm run build.
