##[
This module implements a hookable (de)serialization for arbitrary types using JSON.
Design goal: avoid importing modules where a custom serialization is needed;
see strtabs.fromJsonHook,toJsonHook for an example.
]##
runnableExamples:
import std/[strtabs,json]
type Foo = ref object
t: bool
z1: int8
let a = (1.5'f32, (b: "b2", a: "a2"), 'x', @[Foo(t: true, z1: -3), nil], [{"name": "John"}.newStringTable])
let j = a.toJson
assert j.jsonTo(typeof(a)).toJson == j
assert $[NaN, Inf, -Inf, 0.0, -0.0, 1.0, 1e-2].toJson == """["nan","inf","-inf",0.0,-0.0,1.0,0.01]"""
assert 0.0.toJson.kind == JFloat
assert Inf.toJson.kind == JString
import std/[json, strutils, tables, sets, strtabs, options, strformat]
#[
Future directions:
add a way to customize serialization, for e.g.:
* field renaming
* allow serializing `enum` and `char` as `string` instead of `int`
(enum is more compact/efficient, and robust to enum renamings, but string
is more human readable)
* handle cyclic references, using a cache of already visited addresses
* implement support for serialization and de-serialization of nested variant
objects.
