Reads a JSON file that may have array-wrapped scalar values
and rewrites it with proper formatting (auto_unbox = TRUE).
This is useful for cleaning up JSON files created without auto_unbox.
Usage
clean_priors_json(input_path, output_path = input_path, backup = TRUE)
Arguments
- input_path
Path to JSON file with potential array wrapping
- output_path
Path for cleaned JSON (defaults to overwrite input)
- backup
Logical; whether to create backup of original (default TRUE)
Value
Invisibly returns the output path
Examples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Clean a priors file in place (creates .bak backup)
clean_priors_json("priors.json")
# Clean to a new file without backup
clean_priors_json("old_priors.json", "clean_priors.json", backup = FALSE)
} # }
