As already said, you should use terraform which has its own DSL (called HCL). Inspired by JSON but way simpler and more appropriate for this specific task.

Important tip: If you use one of jetbrains IDE (IntelliJ/PyCharm/...) there is a free plugin to handle terraform files.

It gives the usual syntax highlighting + auto completion of variables and devices + detection of errors. It's very very nice!
