javascript - convert invalid JSON string to JSON

Question

I have an invalid json string like following,

"{one: 'one', two: 'two'}"

I tried to use JSON.parse to convert it to an object. however, this is not valid json string. Is there any functions can convert this invalid format into a valid json string or directly convert into an object?

Answer 1

IF your example syntax is the same as your real JSON, JSONLint says you need double quote for the name AND the value.

In this case only, use these replace calls:

var jsontemp = yourjson.replace((/([w]+)(:)/g), ""$1"$2");
var correctjson = jsontemp.replace((/'/g), """);
//yourjson = "{one: 'one', two: 'two'}"
//jsontemp = "{"one": 'one', "two": 'two'}"
//correctjson = "{"one": "one", "two": "two"}"

However you should try to work with a valid Json in the first place.
