does not support JSONC

[Zamiell]

Hello, and thanks for the package.

I tried it out on my repo and got the following error:

$ npx duel
The config file found at D:\Repositories\foo\tsconfig.json is not parsable as JSON.

The error message implies that duel is parsing the "tsconfig.json" file using JSON. But that is a bug, because "tsconfig.json" files are not JSON files, they are JSONC files. JSONC is a format which allows both comments and trailing commas.

You are supposed to parse it with something like the following:

import JSONC from "jsonc-parser";

const json = JSONC.parse(fileContents);

I believe that this is how TypeScript itself parses it, as well as VSCode, and so on.

Thanks for the reminder that tsconfig.json is not really JSON.

Not strictly necessary, but if you could provide an example of your configuration that would be helpful.

Sure thing, the tsconfig.json that I was using is here: https://github.com/IsaacScript/isaacscript/blob/main/packages/isaacscript-common-ts/tsconfig.json

You want to give #33 a look over? Specifically, I did not add support for allowEmptyContent...

seems fine, thanks
