json jsonc

✅ Viability Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, new syntax sugar for JS, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

⭐ Suggestion

Enable supporting import of jsonc file to provide typing information.

import * as data from './test.jsonc';

type myType = typeof data;

The import statement for jsonc is not supported today.

📃 Motivating Example

import * as data from './test.jsonc';

type myType = typeof data;

💻 Use Cases

Our scenario auto generates UX based on declarative jsonc file.
We have a requirement to load and infer the type specified in the jsonc file to invoke some component in the UX.
There is no typing support currently and workaround is to manually construct the data.

Beginne mit der Überprüfung der bestehenden TypeScript-Unterstützung für den Import von JSON und vergleiche sie mit dem angeforderten JSONC-Importszenario. Lege das erwartete Typing- und Typinferenzverhalten für das Beispiel fest und ermittle anschließend die erforderlichen Tests, um unterstützte JSONC-Importe zu demonstrieren; im Issue werden keine Dateien oder bestehenden Tests genannt.
