c-json is a json library written in C.

This was built to learn about lexing, parsing, and data structures such as dynamic arrays and hashmaps.

Example Programs

StringToJSON

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <standardloop/json.h>

int main(void)
{
    JSON *json = StringToJSON("[1, 2, {\"key\": \"value\"}, \"hello\"]");
    if (json == NULL)
    {
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
    JSONPrint(json);
    JSONFree(json);
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

JSONFromFile

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#include <standardloop/json.h>

int main(void)
{
    JSON *json = JSONFromFile("example.json");

    if (json == NULL)
    {
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
    JSONPrint(json);
    JSONFree(json);
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

JSONToString

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#include <standardloop/json.h>

int main(void)
{
    JSON *json = StringToJSON("[1, 2, {\"key\": \"value\"}, \"hello\"]");
    if (json == NULL)
    {
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
    char *json_string = JSONToString(json);
    if (json_string == NULL)
    {
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
    printf("%s\n", json_string);
    free(json_string);
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Checking for Leaks

• The taskfile has a task to compile the code with address sanitizers.
• See LEAKS.md

Docs

Docs are generated a first generated with doxygen as xml and then moxygen reads the xml to output markdown in the docs/ folder.
