NAME

6       Mojo::JSON - Minimalistic JSON
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Mojo::JSON;
10
11           my $json   = Mojo::JSON->new;
12           my $string = $json->encode({foo => [1, 2], bar => 'hello!'});
13           my $hash   = $json->decode('{"foo": [3, -2, 1]}');
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Mojo::JSON is a minimalistic and relaxed implementation of RFC4627.
17
18       It supports normal Perl data types like "Scalar", "Array" and "Hash",
19       but not blessed references.
20
21           [1, -2, 3]     -> [1, -2, 3]
22           {"foo": "bar"} -> {foo => 'bar'}
23
24       Literal names will be translated to and from Mojo::JSON constants or a
25       similar native Perl value.
26
27           true  -> Mojo::JSON->true
28           false -> Mojo::JSON->false
29           null  -> undef
30
31       Decoding UTF-16 (LE/BE) and UTF-32 (LE/BE) will be handled
32       transparently, encoding will only generate UTF-8.
33

ATTRIBUTES

35       Mojo::JSON implements the following attributes.
36
37   "error"
38           my $error = $json->error;
39           $json     = $json->error('Oops!');
40
41       Parser errors.
42

METHODS

44       Mojo::JSON inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the
45       following new ones.
46
47   "decode"
48           my $array = $json->decode('[1, 2, 3]');
49           my $hash  = $json->decode('{"foo": "bar"}');
50
51       Decode JSON string.
52
53   "encode"
54           my $string = $json->encode({foo => 'bar'});
55
56       Encode Perl structure.
57
58   "false"
59           my $false = Mojo::JSON->false;
60           my $false = $json->false;
61
62       False value, used because Perl has no native equivalent.
63
64   "true"
65           my $true = Mojo::JSON->true;
66           my $true = $json->true;
67
68       True value, used because Perl has no native equivalent.
