Leaves few whitespaces at the end

[syst3mw0rm]

For an example, I've tried to minify JSON document here - https://gist.github.com/syst3mw0rm/11240696 and the output I got is - https://gist.github.com/syst3mw0rm/11240705 which contains few whitespaces at the end which we should get rid off in minified version.

I tried to minify this json.

Use below code.

// foo.js
var fs = require("fs");
var jsonminify = require("jsonminify");
var raw = fs.readFileSync('/tmp/11240696/gistfile1.txt', 'utf-8');

var out = jsonminify(raw);

console.log("---------");
console.log(out)
console.log("---------");

But output has no whitespece.

$ node foo.js
---------
{"glossary":{"title":"example glossary","GlossDiv":{"title":"S","GlossList":{"GlossEntry":{"ID":"SGML","SortAs":"SGML","GlossTerm":"Standard Generalized Markup Language","Acronym":"SGML","Abbrev":"ISO 8879:1986","GlossDef":{"para":"A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.","GlossSeeAlso":["GML","XML"]},"GlossSee":"markup"}}}}}

I have no idea why your output has whitespace.

I have no idea why your output has whitespace.

Perhaps they are tabs, hard-space, or other whitespace that the RegEx doesn't check?
No way to check without seeing the source files inside a .ZIP or 7z archive @syst3mw0rm

ok, I've uploaded relevant source code here - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9555782/json-minify.zip

Code is bit involved than just json minification and it is quite possible that the bug is not in json minify itself but some other piece of code. Code is pretty straightforward to understand and see what's going on. I'm still unable to figure out from where does mysterious trailing whitespaces appear. Help is much appreciated.

I can get reproduce the bug, but the cause is unknown.

It works correctly with text format (ex: #8 (comment)), so I think server is the cause of this bug.

I'll close this issue, but if you can reproduce the bug with text format(not binary format), give me the code and reopen this issue plase.

[syst3mw0rm]

Yeah, not a problem. Probably this ain't issue with json-minify anyway.

But, What do you by reproducing it in text format and giving you the code? I think I already did that.
