JSON Restructure

JSON Restructure is a TypeScript library made by Wick Studio to help developers repair malformed JSON strings easily. It provides functions to fix, parse, validate, and repair JSON strings, making it simpler to work with JSON data in your projects.

Features

• Fix Malformed JSON : JSON Restructure can fix JSON strings with syntax errors, such as missing or trailing commas, comments, etc.
• Parse JSON : It allows you to parse JSON strings and convert them into JavaScript objects.
• Validate JSON : You can validate JSON strings to check if they are well-formed.
• Repair JSON : JSON Restructure attempts to repair JSON strings that cannot be parsed due to syntax errors.

Installation

To install JSON Restructure, you can use npm :

npm install json-restructure

Usage

JSON Restructure provides several functions to handle JSON strings :

Fixing Malformed JSON

const { fixJson } = require('json-restructure');

const malformedJson = '{"name":"John","age":30,}//Trailing comma';
const fixedJson = fixJson(malformedJson);
console.log('Fixed JSON:', fixedJson);

Parsing JSON

const { parseJson } = require('json-restructure');

const jsonString = '{"name":"John","age":30}';
const parsedJson = parseJson(jsonString);
console.log('Parsed JSON:', parsedJson);

Validating JSON

const { validateJson } = require('json-restructure');

const jsonString = '{"name":"John","age":30}';
const isValid = validateJson(jsonString);
console.log('Is valid JSON?', isValid);

Repairing Malformed JSON

const { repairJson } = require('json-restructure');

const malformedJson = '{"name":"John","age":30,}//Trailing comma';
const repairedJson = repairJson(malformedJson);
console.log('Repaired JSON:', repairedJson);

Full Usage

// Import the functions from the library
const { fixJson, parseJson, validateJson, repairJson } = require('json-restructure');

// Example usage
const malformedJson = '{"name":"John","age":30,}//Trailing comma';
const fixedJson = fixJson(malformedJson);
console.log('Fixed JSON:', fixedJson);

// Parse JSON
try {
  const parsedJson = parseJson(fixedJson);
  console.log('Parsed JSON:', parsedJson);
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Error parsing JSON:', error.message);
}

// Validate JSON
const isValid = validateJson(fixedJson);
console.log('Is valid JSON?', isValid);

// Repair JSON
const repairedJson = repairJson(malformedJson);
console.log('Repaired JSON:', repairedJson);
