受这条线索的启发，下面是我们正在使用的:

{
  "//dependencies": {
    "crypto-exchange": "Unified exchange API"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "crypto-exchange": "^2.3.3"
  },
  "//devDependencies": {
    "chai": "Assertions",
    "mocha": "Unit testing framwork",
    "sinon": "Spies, Stubs, Mocks",
    "supertest": "Test requests"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "chai": "^4.1.2",
    "mocha": "^4.0.1",
    "sinon": "^4.1.3",
    "supertest": "^3.0.0"
  }
}

由于重复的注释键被删除运行包。json工具(npm, yarn等)，我开始使用散列版本，允许更好地阅读多行和键，如:

"//": {
  "alpaca": "we use the bootstrap version",
  "eonasdan-bootstrap-datetimepicker": "instead of bootstrap-datetimepicker",
  "moment-with-locales": "is part of moment"
},

根据我的IDE作为根键，这是“有效的”，但在依赖关系中，它抱怨期望字符串值。

到目前为止，这里的大多数“黑客”都建议滥用JSON。但是，为什么不滥用底层脚本语言呢?

最初的反应是把描述放在右边，使用# add comments here来包装它;然而，这在Windows上不起作用，因为标志(例如，npm run myframework -- --myframework-flags)将被忽略。我改变了我的响应，使其适用于所有平台，并增加了一些缩进的可读性。

{
 "scripts": {
    "help": "       echo 'Display help information (this screen)';          npm run",
    "myframework": "echo 'Run myframework binary';                          myframework",
    "develop": "    echo 'Run in development mode (with terminal output)';  npm run myframework"
    "start": "      echo 'Start myFramework as a daemon';                   myframework start",
    "stop":  "      echo 'Stop the myFramework daemon';                     myframework stop"
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  }
}

这将:

Not break JSON compliance (or at least it's not a hack, and your IDE will not give you warnings for doing strange, dangerous stuff) Works cross platform (tested on macOS and Windows, assuming it would work just fine on Linux) Does not get in the way of running npm run myframework -- --help Will output meaningful info when running npm run (which is the actual command to run to get information about available scripts) Presents a more explicit help command (in case some developers are not aware that npm run presents such output) Will show both the commands and its description when running the command itself Is somewhat readable when just opening package.json (using less or your favorite IDE)

As of pnpm 7.17.1, which was just released, you can switch to pnpm for package management, move your package.json to package.json5, and comments in package.json5 are allowed and will be preserved by pnpm. Note however that for publishing as a package to use on the npm registry (for example), a package.json5 will not be recognized by other package managers and I doubt by all of the registry's processing. So you would have to convert the package.json5 to a package.json before publishing. On the other hand, for "top-level applications" that are unlikely to be included as packages in other projects, a package.json5 seems to work just fine, as long as you then stick with pnpm as your package manager.

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"

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",

  },
