composer require cortexphp/json-repair

Quick Start

use Cortex\JsonRepair\JsonRepairer;

use function Cortex\JsonRepair\json_repair;
use function Cortex\JsonRepair\json_repair_decode;

// Broken JSON (single quotes, unquoted keys, trailing comma)
$broken = "{'name': 'John', age: 30, active: true,}";

$repaired = (new JsonRepairer($broken))->repair();
// {"name": "John", "age": 30, "active": true}
