decode

JSON text to Perl data, with this object’s options.

Synopsis

my $data = JSON::PP->new->relaxed->decode('[1, 2, // a comment
                                            3,]');

What you get back

The Perl structure: true and false as $JSON::PP::true and $JSON::PP::false, null as undef, numbers as numbers. Dies with the reason and the offset on text that is not valid JSON.
