JSON Minifier for the Godot Engine
This simple asset makes it possible to load json with comments (jsonc) into Godot.
The JSON minifier removes all comments from a jsonc so it can be correctly parsed afterwards by Godot's parse_json() without error.
Example .jsonc-file
Which, after going though .minify_json, will be stripped of comments as such:
{
"animals": [
{
"tiger": {
"amount": 2
},
"pelican": {
"amount": 69
},
}
]
}Example usage:
static func load_JSON(path : String):
var file : File = File.new()
var error : int = file.open(path, File.READ)
if error == OK:
var text : String = file.get_as_text()
file.close()
text = JSONMinifier.minify_json(text)
var parse_result = parse_json(text)
if parse_result is Array or parse_result is Dictionary:
return parse_result
else:
push_error("Failed to correctly process '{0}', check file format!".format([path]))
return {}
else:
push_error("Failed to open '{0}', check file availability!".format([path]))
return {}Credits
Code is heavily inspired by the (stale) python-branch of the JSON.minify repository as found here
and has been adapted to Godot from there.
