A better object syntax

Run

abos file.abos [--dry-run]

Require

const abos = require('abos');

What does it solve?

With this module your json becomes self-conscious so you can use @top (Root of JSON), @parent (Parent of current scope) or @this (Current scope).

Demo

{
    "jsonItem1": "Hello",
    "jsonItem2": {
        "jsonItem3": "${@top.jsonItem1} W",
        "jsonItem4": "${@this.jsonItem3}or",
    },
    "jsonItem3": {
        "jsonItem4": "${@parent.jsonItem2.jsonItem4}ld"
    }
}

Resolves to

{
    "jsonItem1": "Hello",
    "jsonItem2": {
        "jsonItem3": "Hello W",
        "jsonItem4": "Hello Wor",
    },
    "jsonItem3": {
        "jsonItem4": "Hello World"
    }
}
