Module - "json"

json := import("json")

Functions

• decode(b string/bytes) => object: Parses the JSON string and returns an object.
• encode(o object) => bytes: Returns the JSON string (bytes) of the object. Unlike Go's JSON package, this function does not HTML-escape texts, but, one can use html_escape function if needed.
• indent(b string/bytes, prefix string, indent string) => bytes: Returns an indented form of input JSON bytes string.
• html_escape(b string/bytes) => bytes: Return an HTML-safe form of input JSON bytes string.

Examples

json := import("json")

encoded := json.encode({a: 1, b: [2, 3, 4]})  // JSON-encoded bytes string
indentded := json.indent(encoded, "", "  ")   // indented form
html_safe := json.html_escape(encoded)        // HTML escaped form

decoded := json.decode(encoded)               // {a: 1, b: [2, 3, 4]}
