In order for a string literal to be valid in JSON, the value must be surrounded by double quotes.

Maybe should even say something like "Invalid string literal. Try use double quote instead of single quote."

@wader If you want that, add it to the lexer, or it will also be printed for fromjson/0
or tonumber/0
or JSON parsing errors

Maybe it could work if you rephrase it as something like
Invalid string literal: Got ', but was expecting "
Probably good to add a test case for this to
(but with updated error message) About other error cases: I wonder if the could somehow check the first character to know if this if something resembling a number so that we could distinguish between invalid number and other invalid things? |
Of course! I got excited and committed before looking into how tests were handled 🤦
Not sure I follow. Isn't this what the parser already does around the code I added? |
No worries :)
Haven't look close att the current code but it seems like the clumps together a lots of different invalid jsons texts into "Invalid numeric literal" some i think we could probably split up into more user friendly errors and suggestions: Did a script to try different strings: $ for i in true false nan ident truea falsea nana aa1 1aa + - / "&" "*" '(' "'aa'"; do echo "$i:\t$(jq 2>&1 <<< "$i")"; done
true: true
false: false

Thanks 🤦 |
LGTM if you add the test |
Hey all, sorry for the delay. It's the busy part of the year. I went ahead and updated the error message, checked for a few more invalid literals, and added some tests. Let me know if there are any more changes you would like to see. |

In @wader's comment above, he found other character's that were triggering the invalid numeric literal
. This check catches those. Would this cause an issue?

Why should it say "Invalid literal" instead of "Invalid numeric literal" for those three characters? How is that better?

Does it make more sense for those to trigger Invalid numeric literal
? Personally those don't seem like numeric characters (as compared to, say, -
which if alone, could be an invalid negative number). I was just implementing the suggestions above. I'm happy to revert if this doesn't make sense.

"Invalid numeric literal" means that jq
tried to parse a JSON number and it was not a number. so the error makes sense, yes.
"Invalid literal"? what does that even mean? :)

Oh I see. I guess if we got to this point, then we've tried parsing it as a string, boolean, and null. So all that's left is parsing it as a number, hence that message. Maybe the better error message would be something like Invalid character '&' encountered while parsing number
? I'm happy to revert this change for now though if everything else looks good.

I guess that ppl search and find #501 (it's the most visited issue) because we mention numeric in many error cases and it's confusing

For me it's ok changing the default error to Invalid character X
instead of Invalid numeric literal
. It is not ok however to make &
, /
and *
randomly error with "Invalid literal"; while most other character would error e.g. boo
, =
, !
return Invalid literal
.
Anyhow, I only just noticed that Invalid literal
is an error that jq
already uses instead of Invalid numeric literal
for f
, n
, t
because they are short circuited, so that should be changed to be more consistent I guess.
I am fine with the '
patch as a temporary fix for now, but speecial casing &
, /
, *
feels too random.
Should we just change the default error to Invalid character
instead, and not even special case '
since Invalid character "'" at
is probably good enough?

I'd be happy to implement a general Invalid character "X"
kind of error message, but I may need someone to point me in the right direction. My understanding is that the check_literal
function returns a const char*
meaning we wouldn't be able to get that dynamic error message here without changing a bunch of code. If this change is beyond the scope of the issue, I can just revert back to the simple '
special case.
This change looks good to merge. Any objections? |

Summary
In order for a string literal to be valid in JSON, the value must be surrounded by double quotes. This PR updates the literal validation function to return an error message when the literal begins with a single quote.
I'm not sure if this is the best solution since the line/col that gets reported is at the end of the literal and might be confusing. Another possible solution would be to mark the single quote character as invalid in the
classify
function. This would give the exact line/col where the invalid string begins, but I'm not sure if there would be other consequences to doing this. It appears that reporting the position after an invalid literal is seen elsewhere e.g.echo '{"foo":flase}' | jq
.Testing
Run the command
echo "{'foo': 1}" | jq
and ensure the output mentions an invalid string literal. Compare this to the dev version of jq which mentions an invalid numeric literal.Closes #501
