""" Simple JavaScript/ECMAScript object literal reader
    Only supports object literals wrapped in `var x = ...;` statements, so you
      might want to do read_js_object('var x = %s;' % literal) if it's in another format.

    Requires the slimit <https://github.com/rspivak/slimit> library for parsing.

    Basic constand folding on strings and numbers is done, e.g. "hi " + "there!" reduces to "hi there!",
    and 1+1 reduces to 2.
