jsonaf
A library for parsing, manipulating, and serializing data structured as JSON
README
This is a library for parsing, manipulating, and serializing data structured as
JSON. It's built on the Angstrom and Faraday libraries. The underlying
type is a simple polymorphic type:
type t =
[ `Null
| `False
| `True
| `String of string
| `Number of string
| `Object of (string * t) list
| `Array of t list
]
Note that Number
has a type of string
! This is intentional, as it is left up
to the user to decide how numbers should be interpreted. Certain fields might be
integers while others might be floats.
The most bare-bones use case of this library is to pattern match on the type
above and use the following two functions:
val of_string : string -> t
val to_string : t -> string
Jsonaf_kernel
The kernel library simply contains the type and functions to serialize and
deserialize the type to a string. It has no other dependencies outside of
Angstrom and Faraday.
