If you want to make a valid AHK config I'd go with an include on top of your script.
If you want to make a valid JSON, then don't use the ":=" operator or other syntax that isn't JS valid.
Maybe an <AHKON> could be possible but I see it as quite some effort...
yes. i will rename my vars an function.safetycar wrote: ↑11 Jan 2019, 13:16To keep it simple JSON it's mostly about putting objects inside objects, you're not defining variables in JSON, you're just describing object keys and values.
You'll be mostly using colon ":" instead of assignments.
For example: { key1:val1, key2 : { key3:val3} }
Code: Select all
configStr2minify_configFile(configIncAhkAddress := "\config\config.inc.ahk", configMinifyIncAhkAddress := "\config.minify.inc.ahk" ){
..yes thanksafetycar wrote: ↑12 Jan 2019, 02:33I think what you're trying to do is ok from the point of view of functionality (I haven't seen where the g_config is set to {} but I guess it's somewhere or it won't work).
But don't get confused, what you're doing is not JSON. Because JSON is about an Object represented as a String. If you don't have an Stringifier and a Parser(Destringifier) you're just working with objects directly. Which is not bad, but it's good to know the difference.
Or maybe I got the wrong idea because I haven't seen any reference to those functions.
I have mentioned elsewhere down, that I was mistaken with the title. how can you change that(solved: i changed first posting title)?
