NAME

JSON::YAJL::Generator - JSON generation with YAJL

SYNOPSIS

  use JSON::YAJL::Generator;
  my $yajl = JSON::YAJL::Generator->new();
  # or to beautify (indent):
  #  my $yajl = JSON::YAJL::Generator->new( 1, '    ' );
  $yajl->map_open();
  $yajl->string("integer");
  $yajl->integer(123);
  $yajl->string("double");
  $yajl->double("1.23");
  $yajl->string("number");
  $yajl->number("3.141");
  $yajl->string("string");
  $yajl->string("a string");
  $yajl->string("string2");
  $yajl->string("another string");
  $yajl->string("null");
  $yajl->null();
  $yajl->string("true");
  $yajl->bool(1);
  $yajl->string("false");
  $yajl->bool(0);
  $yajl->string("map");
  $yajl->map_open();
  $yajl->string("key");
  $yajl->string("value");
  $yajl->string("array");
  $yajl->array_open();
  $yajl->integer(1);
  $yajl->integer(2);
  $yajl->integer(3);
  $yajl->array_close();
  $yajl->map_close();
  $yajl->map_close();
  print $yajl->get_buf;
  $yajl->clear;

  # This prints non-beautified:
  {"integer":123,"double":1.2299999999999999822,"number":3.141,"string":"a string","string2":"another string","null":null,"true":true,"false":false,"map":{"key":"value","array":[1,2,3]}}
  # or beautified:
  {
     "integer": 123,
     "double": 1.2299999999999999822,
     "number": 3.141,
     "string": "a string",
     "string2": "another string",
     "null": null,
     "true": true,
     "false": false,
     "map": {
        "key": "value",
        "array": [
           1,
           2,
           3
        ]
     }
  }

DESCRIPTION

This module allows you to generator JSON with YAJL. This is quite a low-level interface for generating JSON and it accumulates JSON in an internal buffer until you fetch it.

This is a very early release to see how cross-platform the underlying code is. The API may change in future.
