我有一个简单的包裹。json文件,我想添加一个评论。有办法做到这一点吗,或者有什么hack可以做到这一点吗?

{
  "name": "My Project",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "3.x",
    "mongoose": "3.x"
  },
  "devDependencies" :  {
    "should": "*"
    /* "mocha": "*" not needed as should be globally installed */
  }
}

上面的示例注释在npm崩溃时不起作用。我还尝试了// style注释。


当前回答

我做了一些你们可能会喜欢的事情:

这个//在名字里面意味着它是我的注释:

  "//":"Main and typings are used till ES5",
  "//main": "build/index",
  "//typings": "build/index",

其他回答

我对JSON中没有注释的沮丧之处的看法。我创建了新节点,以它们所引用的节点命名,但以下划线作为前缀。这是不完美的,但功能。

{
  "name": "myapp",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^16.3.2",
    "react-dom": "^16.3.2",
    "react-scripts": "1.1.4"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "__start": [
        "a note about how the start script works"
    ],
    "start": "react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "test": "react-scripts test --env=jsdom",
    "eject": "react-scripts eject"
  },
  "__proxy": [
    "A note about how proxy works",
    "multilines are easy enough to add"
  ],
  "proxy": "http://server.whatever.com:8000"
}

我一直在这样做:

{
  ...
  "scripts": {
    "about": "echo 'Say something about this project'",
    "about:clean": "echo 'Say something about the clean script'",
    "clean": "do something",
    "about:build": "echo 'Say something about building it'",
    "build": "do something",
    "about:watch": "echo 'Say something about how watch works'",
    "watch": "do something",
  }
  ...
}

这样,我既可以读取脚本本身的“伪注释”,也可以运行如下代码,在终端中查看某种帮助:

npm run about
npm run about:watch

如果你用的是纱线就更好了。

yarn about:clean

此外,正如@Dakota Jang在评论中指出的那样,你可以使用//之类的键来更清楚地表明这是一条评论。 像这样:

{
  ...
  "scripts": {
    "//clean": "echo 'Say something about the clean script'",
    "clean": "do something",
    "//build": "echo 'Say something about building it'",
    "build": "do something",
    "//watch": "echo 'Say something about how watch works'",
    "watch": "do something",
  }
  ...
}

然后运行:

npm run //build
# or
yarn //build

在终端中会有一个helper输出,在包中会有一个“comment”。Json也是。

最近在Node.js邮件列表中讨论了这个问题。

根据创建npm的Isaac Schlueter的说法:

... "//"键永远不会被NPM用于任何目的,它是为注释保留的…如果想使用多行注释,可以使用数组或多个“//”键。

当使用你常用的工具(npm, yarn等)时,多个“//”键将被移除。这生存:

{ "//": [
  "first line",
  "second line" ] }

这将不复存在:

{ "//": "this is the first line of a comment",
  "//": "this is the second line of the comment" }

必须注意,"//"只能在包的根目录下使用。json对象。例如 { “/ /”:“评论!” “依赖”:{…} } 是有效的但是 { “依赖”:{ “/ /”:“评论?” } } 是无效的。 ——@david_p评论

在浪费了一个小时的复杂和俗套的解决方案后,我找到了注释package.json中庞大的依赖项部分的简单而有效的解决方案。就像这样:

{
  "name": "package name",
  "version": "1.0",
  "description": "package description",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "npm install && node server.js"
  },
  "scriptsComments": {
    "start": "Runs development build on a local server configured by server.js"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "ajv": "^5.2.2"
  },
  "dependenciesComments": {
    "ajv": "JSON-Schema Validator for validation of API data"
  }
}

当以同样的方式排序时,现在我很容易在Git提交差异中或在编辑器中跟踪这些依赖/注释对,同时使用package.json文件。

不需要使用额外的工具,只需要简单有效的JSON。

免责声明:你可能不应该使用这个黑客。请看下面的评论。


下面是另一个在JSON中添加注释的技巧。自:

{"a": 1, "a": 2}

等于

{"a": 2}

你可以这样做:

{
  "devDependencies": "'mocha' not needed as should be globally installed",
  "devDependencies" :  {
    "should": "*"
  }
}
