JSON-2.0

Usage

// NOTE** key names and string values don't need to be in quotes.
var json2 = new JSON2("{name: Bob Roberts, age: 25, favourite foods: [key lime pie, lemon curry]}") ;

This produces the following object:

{
        name: Bob Roberts,
        age: 25,
        favourite foods: 
        {
                0: key lime pie,
                1: lemon curry
        }
}

In-line scripting

// The JSON2 can be constructed with an additional parameter which specifies whether
// the script will be evaluated when parsing or not. 
// Scripts must be written between tildes "~"
// the insert() function can be used to affect the JSON instance directly in the script.
var json2 = new JSON2("{OS Info~var os=require('os'); insert(os.cpus());~}", true) ;

This produces the following object:

{
        OS Info: 
        {
                0:

// Alternatively you can use the insertKeyValue() function to specify the key as well:
var json2 = new JSON2("{OS Info~var os=require('os'); insertKeyValue('platform', os.platform()); insertKeyValue('release',os.release());~}", true) ;

This produces the following:

{
        OS Info: 
        {
                platform: linux,
                release: 4.15.0-46-generic
        }
