JSON::Repair Gem Version Build Status Stand With Ukraine

This is a Ruby gem designed to repair broken JSON strings. Inspired by and based on the jsonrepair js library. It efficiently handles and corrects malformed JSON data, making it especially useful in scenarios where JSON output from LLMs might not strictly adhere to JSON standards. Whether it's missing quotes, misplaced commas, or unexpected characters, it ensures that the JSON data is valid and can be parsed correctly.

Installation

Add this gem to your application's Gemfield by executing:

$ bundle add json-repair

Alternatively, if you are not using Bundler to manage your dependencies:

$ gem install json-repair

Usage

Using JSON::Repair is straightforward. Simply call the repair method with a JSON string as an argument:

require 'json/repair'

# Example of repairing a JSON string
broken_json = '{name: Alice, "age": 25,}'
repaired_json = JSON.repair(broken_json)
puts repaired_json  # Outputs: {"name": "Alice", "age": 25}

The repair method takes a string containing JSON data and returns a corrected version of this string, ensuring it is valid JSON.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
