{
"ip" : "127.0.0.1",
"port" : 666
}
A more Lua-inspired syntax is friendlier:
ip = "127.0.0.1"
port = 666
This syntax corresponds 1-1 with regular JSON syntax and can be trivially converted back and forth with the following rules:
- Assume an object definition at the root level (no need to surround entire file with { } ).
- Commas are optional
- Quotes around object keys are optional if the keys are valid identifiers
- Replace : with =
On the other hand, all syntax wars are pointless and will only send us into an early grave.
