JSON5

The library aims to be a replacement for the classic JSON format/syntax and take advantage of the new features found in EcmaScript 5.

What is new in this release:

• Major:
• JSON5 officially supports Node.js v4 LTS and v5. Support for Node.js v0.6 and v0.8 have been dropped, while support for v0.10 and v0.12 remain.
• Fix:
• YUI Compressor no longer fails when compressing json5.js.
• New:
• Parse and the CLI provide line and column numbers when displaying error messages.

What is new in version 0.4.0:

• Support leading decimal points in decimal numbers.
• Support hexadecimal numbers.
• Add Node.js require() hook. Require json5/lib/require to register it.
• Add Node.js executable to compile JSON5 files to JSON. Run with json5.
• Rejects octal numbers properly now.

Requirements:

• JavaScript enabled on client side
