Scanner and parser for JSON with comments.

Why?
|
|
----
|
|
JSONC is JSON with JavaScript style comments. This node module provides a scanner and fault tolerant parser that can process JSONC but is also useful for standard JSON.
|
|
- the *scanner* tokenizes the input string into tokens and token offsets
|
|
- the *visit* function implements a 'SAX' style parser with callbacks for the encountered properties and values.
|
|
- the *parseTree* function computes a hierarchical DOM with offsets representing the encountered properties and values.
|
|
- the *parse* function evaluates the JavaScript object represented by JSON string in a fault tolerant fashion.
|
|
- the *getLocation* API returns a location object that describes the property or value located at a given offset in a JSON document.
|
|
- the *findNodeAtLocation* API finds the node at a given location path in a JSON DOM.
|
|
- the *format* API computes edits to format a JSON document.
|
|
- the *modify* API computes edits to insert, remove or replace a property or value in a JSON document.
|
|
- the *applyEdits* API applies edits to a document.
|
|

### Scanner:

*/
