因为大多数开发人员都熟悉基于标记/注释的文档，所以我开始使用的约定是类似的。来尝尝:

{
  "@comment dependencies": [
    "These are the comments for the `dependencies` section.",
    "The name of the section being commented is included in the key after the `@comment` 'annotation'/'tag' to ensure the keys are unique.",
    "That is, using just \"@comment\" would not be sufficient to keep keys unique if you need to add another comment at the same level.",
    "Because JSON doesn't allow a multi-line string or understand a line continuation operator/character, just use an array for each line of the comment.",
    "Since this is embedded in JSON, the keys should be unique.",
    "Otherwise JSON validators, such as ones built into IDEs, will complain.",
    "Or some tools, such as running `npm install something --save`, will rewrite the `package.json` file but with duplicate keys removed.",
    "",
    "@package react - Using an `@package` 'annotation` could be how you add comments specific to particular packages."
  ],
  "dependencies": {
    ...
  },
  "@comment scripts": {
    "build": "This comment is about the build script.",
    "start": [
      "This comment is about the `start` script.",
      "It is wrapped in an array to allow line formatting.",
      "When using npm, as opposed to yarn, to run the script, be sure to add ` -- ` before adding the options.",
      "",
      "@option {number} --port - The port the server should listen on."
    ],
    "test": "This comment is about the test script.",
  },
  "scripts": {
    "build": "...",
    "start": "...",
    "test": "..."
  }
}

注意:对于dependencies、devDependencies等部分，注释注释不能直接添加到配置对象中各个包依赖项的上面，因为npm期望键是npm包的名称。这就是@comment依赖的原因。

我喜欢在JSON中添加注释的注释/标记样式，因为@符号与普通声明不同。

年长的建议

以下是我之前的建议。它内联注释的脚本，但我已经意识到，这些注释显示为“命令”在一些工具(在VS Code > Explorer > NPM脚本部分)。最新的建议没有受到这个问题的影响，但是脚本注释不再位于同一位置。

{
  "@comment dependencies": [
    ...
  ],
  "dependencies": {
    ...
  },
  "scripts": {
    "@comment build": "This comment is about the build script.",
    "build": "...",

    "@comment start": [
      "This comment is about the `start` script.",
      "It is wrapped in an array to allow line formatting.",
      "When using npm, as opposed to yarn, to run the script, be sure to add ` -- ` before adding the options.",
      "",
      "@option {number} --port - The port the server should listen on."
    ],
    "start": "...",

    "@comment test": "This comment is about the test script.",
    "test": "..."
  }
}

注意:在某些情况下，例如在“scripts”对象中，一些编辑器/ ide可能会抱怨数组。在脚本上下文中，VS Code期望值为字符串——而不是数组。

我有一个有趣的黑客想法。

创建一个适当的npm包名，作为文件包中的依赖项和devDependencies块的注释分隔符。Json，例如x----x----x

{
    "name": "app-name",
    "dependencies": {
        "x----x----x": "this is the first line of a comment",
        "babel-cli": "6.x.x",
        "babel-core": "6.x.x",
        "x----x----x": "this is the second line of a comment",
        "knex": "^0.11.1",
        "mocha": "1.20.1",
        "x----x----x": "*"
    }
}

注意:您必须在最后一个注释分隔行中添加一个有效的版本，如块中的*。

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

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": "*"
  }
}

除了全局的//注释(或注释数组)之外，你还可以使用semver管道分隔符对特定依赖项进行注释。

"@types/node": "^16.11.7 || keep-same-major-version-as-node"

您总是可以滥用重复的键会被覆盖的事实。这就是我刚才写的:

"dependencies": {
  "grunt": "...",
  "grunt-cli": "...",

  "api-easy": "# Here is the pull request: https://github.com/...",
  "api-easy": "git://..."

  "grunt-vows": "...",
  "vows": "..."
}

然而，不清楚JSON是否允许复制键(参见 JSON语法是否允许在一个对象中重复键?它似乎与npm一起工作，所以我冒这个险。

推荐的破解方法是使用“//”键(来自nodejs邮件列表)。当我测试它时，它不能处理“依赖”部分。另外，文章中的例子使用了多个“//”键，这意味着npm不会拒绝具有重复键的JSON文件。换句话说，上面的hack应该总是好的。

更新:重复密钥的一个恼人的缺点是npm install——save无声地消除了所有重复密钥。不幸的是，它很容易被忽视，你善意的评论也消失了。

“//”攻击看起来仍然是最安全的。但是，多行注释也会被npm install -save删除。
