Introduction

nim-json-serialization is a library in the nim-serialization family for turning Nim objects into JSON documents and back. Features include:

• Efficient coding of JSON documents directly to and from Nim data types
  • Full type-based customization of both parsing and formatting
  • Flavors for defining multiple JSON serialization styles per Nim type
  • Efficient skipping of tags and values for partial JSON parsing
• Flexibility in mixing type-based and dynamic JSON access
  • Structured JsonValueRef node type for DOM-style access to parsed document
  • Flat JsonString type for passing nested JSON documents between abstraction layers
  • Seamless interoperability with std/json and JsonNode
• Full RFC8259 spec compliance including the notorious JSON number
  • Passes JSONTestSuite
  • Customizable parser strictness including support for non-standard extensions
• Well-defined handling of malformed / malicious inputs with configurable parsing limits
  • Fuzzing and comprehensive manual test coverage
