yamljs.parse can't handle valid JSON
souenzzo opened this issue · comments
Hello
I'm porting a service from JVM
to Nodejs
This services handles YAML and for history reasons, it still have to handle some JSON.
I expect that the YAML parser can handle any JSON, as the JVM lib that I use on JVM do.
This lib handle some JSON, but not any JSON (in general, pprint'ed JSON dosen't work)
https://yaml.org/
- 08-APR-2005 -- As it turns out, YAML is a superset of the JSON serialization language
node: v15.1.0
yamljs: v0.3.0
Example data:
{
"a": 42
}
One-line reproduce:
node -e "console.log(require('yamljs').parse(JSON.stringify({a: 42}, null, 2)))"
Current output:
$ node -e "console.log(require('yamljs').parse(JSON.stringify({a: 42}, null, 2)))"

throw e;

throw e;

[ParseException [Error]: Malformed inline YAML string ({
"a": 42
}).] {
parsedLine: 1,

}
Expected output
$ node -e "console.log(require('yamljs').parse(JSON.stringify({a: 42}, null, 2)))"
{ a: 42 }
