JSON5
A Rust JSON5 serializer and deserializer which speaks Serde.
API
Deserialize a JSON5 string with from_str. Go the other way with to_string.
The serializer is very basic at the moment, it just produces plain old JSON.
See the Serde documentation for details on implementing Serialize and
Deserialize. (Usually it's just a case of sprinkling in some derives.)
The Serde data model is mostly supported, with the exception of bytes and borrowed strings.
Example
Read some config into a struct.
use json5;
use serde_derive::Deserialize;
#[derive(Deserialize, Debug, PartialEq)]
struct Config {
message: String,
n: i32,
}
fn main() {
let config = "
{
// A traditional message.
message: 'hello world',
// A number for some reason.
n: 42,
}
";
assert_eq!(
json5::from_str(config),
Ok(Config {
message: "hello world".to_string(),
n: 42,
}),
);
}
