Ask HN: Do you use JSON Schema? Help us shape its future stability guarantees

Just for fun, I wondered if YAML '#' comments could exist within a multi-line formatted JSON file.

I cannot say the below holds for all YAML libraries, but can say the below works.

Assume there is a file named "foo.yaml" which has the following content:

  {
    # this is a comment
    "hello" : "world",
    array : [
      # first number
      1,
  
      # second number
      2
      ]
  }

Running:

  ruby -ryaml -rjson -e 'puts JSON.pretty_generate(YAML.load(ARGF))' < foo.yaml

Yields the below without error:

  {
    "hello": "world",
    "array": [
      1,
      2
    ]
  }

HTH

you can reduce further this by running:

    cue export foo.yaml --out json

If you have an existing JSON file, add // comments wherever and run:

    cue export cue: - --out json < file.json

The `cue: -` tells cue how to interpret stdin and has many options
