Hjson plugin for grunt, converts from and to JSON.

Hjson, the Human JSON. A configuration file format that caters to humans and helps reduce the errors they make.

It supports #, // and /**/ style comments as well as avoiding trailing/missing comma and other mistakes. For details and syntax see hjson.org.

First, install grunt-hjson as a development dependency:

npm install --save-dev grunt-hjson

Then, add it to your gruntfile.js:

module.exports = function(grunt) {

  grunt.initConfig({
    pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
    hjson: {
      cvt: {
        files: [
          {
            expand: true,
            cwd: 'src/',
            src: ['*.hjson'],
            dest: 'dist/',
            ext: '.json',
          },
        ],
      }
    }
  });

  grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-hjson');

  grunt.registerTask('default', ['hjson']);
};

To convert to Hjson specify the .hjson extension in ext.
