rjson : a minimal json parser for rust

  • Contain a single standalone lib.rs that do all the jobs.
  • Impl the traits with your own structs before parse.
  • A simple Impl can be, enum for Value, the same enum for Null, Vec for Array and BTreeMap for Object.
  • It requires only core and alloc, nothing else, including std.
  • In no_std environment, it need a global allocator to work.

Reminder

  • We allow , after the last item/member of Array/Object.
  • We treat unescaped line breaks as normal char, and ignore escaped line breaks.
  • We do not support surrogate unicode char.
  • We use f64 for all numbers, but you can use others. Remind: f64 means i52.
  • We take &[char], not &[u8], and not &str.
  • No stringify or encode, because they should not be a part of the traits.
  • Instead of returning None, we simply ignore chars after the data.
  • The position where data ends is returned through index. You can compare it with len() - 1.
  • This value is also useful when Option::None returned, by indicating where the syntax error occurs.
  • parse may return all possible values, not only Array and Object.
