JSONLite

A simple JSON parser that allows looser JSON syntax.

• You can put C-style line comments //anywhere...
• You dont need to quote object keys unless they "contain spaces"
• You don't need commas to separate key:value pairs
• But, if you use commas, they're allowed after the last key:value pair in an object and after the last value in an array

Non-standard but I love it for my own projects..

Standard JSON:

{
    "arrayProp": [ 
        "string0", 1.0, 
        "string1" 
    ],
    "objectProp": { "key0":"string0" }
}

"JSONLite":

{
    // a comment can go here
    arrayProp: [ 
        "string0" 1.0 
        "string1" // or here...
    ]
    objectProp: { key0:"string0" }
}

Getting it working

You will need to install updated versions of bison and flex. The project expects them to be in /usr/local/opt/bison and /usr/local/opt/flex respectively. You can use homebrew to install them in the right place: brew install bison and brew install flex. After that JSONLite should compile.
