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"
}

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"
  }
}

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。

我喜欢这个:

  "scripts": {
    "⏬⏬⏬ Jenkins Build - in this order ⏬⏬⏬                                                                                                  ": "",
    "purge": "lerna run something",
    "clean:test": "lerna exec --ignore nanana"
}

在命令名中有额外的空格，所以在Visual Studio Code的NPM Scripts插件中，你有更好的外观。

另一个黑客

我创建了一个脚本来读取文件包。Json作为句柄模板的上下文。

代码如下，以防有人发现这种方法有用:

const templateData = require('../package.json');
const Handlebars = require('handlebars');
const fs = require('fs-extra');
const outputPath = __dirname + '/../package-json-comments.md';
const srcTemplatePath = __dirname + '/package-json-comments/package-json-comments.hbs';

Handlebars.registerHelper('objlist', function() {
  // The first argument is an object, and the list is a set of keys for that obj
  const obj = arguments[0];
  const list = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1).slice(0,-1);

  const mdList = list.map(function(k) {
    return '* ' + k + ': ' + obj[k];
  });

  return new Handlebars.SafeString(mdList.join("\n"));
});

fs.readFile(srcTemplatePath, 'utf8', function(err, srcTemplate){
  if (err) throw err;
  const template = Handlebars.compile(srcTemplate);
  const content = template(templateData);

  fs.writeFile(outputPath, content, function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
  });
});

句柄模板文件package-json-comments.hbs

### Dependency Comments
For package: {{ name }}: {{version}}

#### Current Core Packages
should be safe to update
{{{objlist dependencies
           "@material-ui/core"
           "@material-ui/icons"
           "@material-ui/styles"
}}}

#### Lagging Core Packages
breaks current code if updated
{{{objlist dependencies
           "amazon-cognito-identity-js"
}}}

#### Major version change
Not tested yet
{{{objlist dependencies
           "react-dev-utils"
           "react-redux"
           "react-router"
           "redux-localstorage-simple"

}}}

总结一下这些答案:

添加一个名为//的顶级字段，其中包含一个注释字符串。这是可行的，但它很糟糕，因为你不能把评论放在他们正在评论的东西附近。 添加多个以//开头的顶级字段，例如包含注释字符串的//dependencies。这样更好，但仍然只允许您做顶级注释。不能注释单个依赖项。 在脚本中添加echo命令。这是可行的，但它很糟糕，因为您只能在脚本中使用它。

这些解决方案的可读性也都不是很好。它们增加了大量的视觉干扰，ide不会用语法将它们作为注释突出显示。

我认为唯一合理的解决方案是生成包。Json从另一个文件。最简单的方法是将JSON写成JavaScript，然后使用Node.js将其写入package.json。将该文件保存为package.json。chmod +x它，然后你可以运行它来生成你的package。json。

#!/usr/bin/env node

import { writeFileSync } from "fs";

const config = {
  // TODO: Think of better name.
  name: "foo",
  dependencies: {
    // Bar 2.0 does not work due to bug 12345.
    bar: "^1.2.0",
  },
  // Look at these beautify comments. Perfectly syntax highlighted, you
  // can put them anywhere and there no risk of some tool removing them.
};

writeFileSync("package.json", JSON.stringify({
    "//": "This file is \x40generated from package.json.mjs; do not edit.",
    ...config
  }, null, 2));

它使用//键来警告人们不要编辑它。\x40生成是故意的。它变成了@generated in package。Json，这意味着一些代码审查系统将在默认情况下崩溃该文件。

这是构建系统中的一个额外步骤，但它胜过这里的所有其他hack。
