Versions

cson-parser

A minimalistic CSON parser. Offers:

A strict subset of CSON that allows only data
Interface is identical to JSON.{parse,stringify}
Does not run the code, free of intermediate string representations
Sane parse error messages with line/column
Regular Expressions are considered data and will be accepted as well

In addition of pure data it allows for simple arithmetic expressions like addition and multiplication. This allows more readable configuration of numbers, the following is a valid strict CSON file:

1cachedData:
2  refreshIntervalMs: 5 * 60 * 1000

Install

npm install --save cson-parser

Usage

1CSON = require 'cson-parser'
2# This will print { a: '123' }
3console.log CSON.parse "a: '123'"

High-level APIs

cson-parser only offers basic parsing and serialization. But there are some great tools if you want more than that:

fs-cson, read and write CSON files
CSON, provides file, coffeescript, javascript handling and a CLI
season, atom.io's CSON package. Includes CLI tool to convert CSON to JSON
grunt-cson, converts CSON to JSON as a grunt task
load-grunt-configs, loads grunt config from CSON files (among other formats)
fetcher, a declarative way to download (frontend) libraries, supports CSON configs
csonschema, parses JSON Schema files written in CSON

You can find more on the npm website.

FAQ

Why not just use YAML?

YAML allows for some pretty complex constructs like anchor and alias, which can behave in unexpected ways, especially with nested objects. CSON is simpler while still offering most of the niceties of YAML.

Why not just use JSON?

JSON doesn't offer multi-line strings and is generally a little noisier. Also sometimes it can be nice to have comments in config files.

Why not just use CoffeeScript directly?

You don't want data files being able to run arbitrary code. Even when ran in a proper sandbox, while(true) is still possible.
