Normalization of 'JSON' Strings

Provides a function allowing to normalize a 'JSON' string, for example by adding double quotes around the keys when they are missing. Also provides 'RStudio' addins for the same purpose.

jsonNormalize

Normalize JSON strings.

library(jsonNormalize)

badJstring <- "
[
  { 01: false, 999: true, },
  {
    area: 30,
    thirty: '30',
    ind: [5, 4.1,   3.7 , 1e3,],
    'cluster'    : true  ,
    \"999\": false,
    city: 'London'
  },
  [ null, undefined,   NaN],
  {
    'null': null,
    'undefined': undefined,
    'NaN': NaN
  }
]"
goodJstring <- jsonNormalize(badJstring, prettify = TRUE)
cat(goodJstring)
