Added precondition checks to validate input files and paths to return more informative error messages as per #2
strip-json-comments 
Strip comments from JSON. Lets you use comments in your JSON files!
This is now possible:
{
// rainbows
"unicorn": /* ❤ */ "cake"
}
It will replace single-line comments // and multi-line comments /**/ with whitespace. This allows JSON error positions to remain as close as possible to the original source.
Also available as a gulp/grunt/broccoli plugin.
Install
$ npm install --save strip-json-comments
Usage
const json = '{/*rainbows*/"unicorn":"cake"}';
JSON.parse(stripJsonComments(json));
//=> {unicorn: 'cake'}
API
