JQ issues with comments on Json file

问题

I'm using JQ https://stedolan.github.io/jq/ to work in bash with my json and when I read the json is throwing me an error

   parse error: Invalid numeric literal at line 2, column 5=

Since my json has some comments

  // comment
  "spawn": {}

I've been seen looking the options and I cannot find any option to fix the problem. Any idea how to solve it?

回答1:

JSON and thus jq do not support comments (in the usual sense) in JSON input. The jq FAQ lists a number of tools that can be used to remove comments, including jsonlint, json5, and any-json. I'd recommend one that can act as a filter.

See https://github.com/stedolan/jq/wiki/FAQ#processing-not-quite-valid-json for links and further details.

回答2:

Remove them; JSON does not support comments.

(JSON is defined here; you can see a briefer description of the grammar here.)

I found https://github.com/sindresorhus/strip-json-comments-cli which allows you to do:

cat my_json_with_comments.json | strip-json-comments | jq  .
