nuon 0.98.0 - Docs.rs

Support for the NUON format.

The NUON format is a superset of JSON designed to fit the feel of Nushell. Some of its extra features are

trailing commas are allowed
commas are optional in lists
quotes are not required around keys or any bare string that do not contain spaces or special characters
comments are allowed, though not preserved when using [from_nuon]

Example

below is some data in the JSON format

{
    "name": "Some One",
    "birth": "1970-01-01",
    "stats": [
      2544729499973429198,
      687051042647753531,
      6702443901704799912
    ]
}

and an equivalent piece of data written in NUON

{
    name: "Some One",       # the name of the person
    birth: "1970-01-01",    # their date of birth
    stats: [                # some dummy "stats" about them
      2544729499973429198,
      687051042647753531,
      6702443901704799912, # note the trailing comma here...
    ], # and here
} # wait, are these comments in a JSON-like document?!?!
