You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Load a JSON string into a data structure. Also, create a new data structure and serialize it into JSON.
Use objects and arrays (as appropriate for your language) and make sure your JSON is valid (https://jsonformatter.org).
8th
8th uses JSON as its data description language, so:
[1,2,3] . cr
Prints an array of [1,2,3].
Converting a string to an object:
"{ \"a\": 123 }" json>
Takes the string and converts to the JSON object (which is an 8th object). Convert back to a string:
{"a": 123} >s
That takes the object and converts to the JSON string given above.
Ada
Alternative using GNATCOLL
<lang ada> with Ada.Text_IO; with GNATCOLL.JSON;
procedure JSON_Test is
use Ada.Text_IO;
use GNATCOLL.JSON;
JSON_String : constant String := "{""name"":""Pingu"",""born"":1986}";
Penguin : JSON_Value := Create_Object;
Parents : JSON_Array;
begin
Penguin.Set_Field (Field_Name => "name",
Field => "Linux");
Penguin.Set_Field (Field_Name => "born",
Field => 1992);
Append (Parents, Create ("Linus Torvalds"));
Append (Parents, Create ("Alan Cox"));
Append (Parents, Create ("Greg Kroah-Hartman"));
Penguin.Set_Field (Field_Name => "parents",
Field => Parents);
Put_Line (Penguin.Write);
Penguin := Read (JSON_String, "json.errors");
Penguin.Set_Field (Field_Name => "born",
Field => 1986);
Parents := Empty_Array;
Append (Parents, Create ("Otmar Gutmann"));
Append (Parents, Create ("Silvio Mazzola"));
Penguin.Set_Field (Field_Name => "parents",
Field => Parents);
Put_Line (Penguin.Write);
end JSON_Test; </lang>
- Output:
{"parents":["Linus Torvalds", "Alan Cox", "Greg Kroah-Hartman"], "name":"Linux", "born":1992}
{"parents":["Otmar Gutmann", "Silvio Mazzola"], "name":"Pingu", "born":1986}
Alternative using Matreshka
<lang ada> with Ada.Wide_Wide_Text_IO; use Ada.Wide_Wide_Text_IO; with League.JSON.Arrays; use League.JSON.Arrays; with League.JSON.Documents; use League.JSON.Documents; with League.JSON.Objects; use League.JSON.Objects; with League.JSON.Values; use League.JSON.Values; with League.Strings; use League.Strings;
procedure Main is
function "+" (Item : Wide_Wide_String) return Universal_String
renames To_Universal_String;
JSON_String : constant Universal_String
:= +"{""name"":""Pingu"",""born"":1986}";
Penguin : JSON_Object; Parents : JSON_Array;
begin
Penguin.Insert (+"name", To_JSON_Value (+"Linux")); Penguin.Insert (+"born", To_JSON_Value (1992));
Parents.Append (To_JSON_Value (+"Linus Torvalds")); Parents.Append (To_JSON_Value (+"Alan Cox")); Parents.Append (To_JSON_Value (+"Greg Kroah-Hartman"));
Penguin.Insert (+"parents", To_JSON_Value (Parents));
Put_Line (To_JSON_Document (Penguin).To_JSON.To_Wide_Wide_String);
Penguin := From_JSON (JSON_String).To_Object;
Parents := Empty_JSON_Array;
Parents.Append (To_JSON_Value (+"Otmar Gutmann")); Parents.Append (To_JSON_Value (+"Silvio Mazzola"));
Penguin.Insert (+"parents", To_JSON_Value (Parents));
Put_Line (To_JSON_Document (Penguin).To_JSON.To_Wide_Wide_String);
end Main; </lang>
- Output:
{"parents":["Linus Torvalds","Alan Cox","Greg Kroah-Hartman"],"name":"Linux","born":1992}
{"parents":["Otmar Gutmann","Silvio Mazzola"],"name":"Pingu","born":1986}

Apex
JSON serialization and deserialization is built in <lang apex>class TestClass{
String foo {get;set;}
Integer bar {get;set;}
}
TestClass testObj = new TestClass(); testObj.foo = 'ABC'; testObj.bar = 123;
String serializedString = JSON.serialize(testObj); TestClass deserializedObject = (TestClass)JSON.deserialize(serializedString, TestClass.class);
//"testObj.foo == deserializedObject.foo" is true //"testObj.bar == deserializedObject.bar" is true </lang>
Arturo
<lang arturo>// set some json string json: "{ \"foo\": 1, \"bar\": [10, \"apples\"] }"

// set some object object: #{ name: "john" surname: "doe" address: #{ number: 10 street: "unknown" country: "Spain" } married: false }
// generate json string from object print "OBJECT:" print [generateJson object] </lang>
- Output:

Bracmat
Bracmat has built-in functionality for reading and writing JSON data. A full roundtrip from JSON file over a Bracmat internal representation back to a JSON file looks like this:
<lang bracmat>put$(jsn$(get$("input.json",JSN)),"output.JSN,NEW)</lang>
Let us split this into separate steps.
To read a JSON file "myfile.json", use
<lang bracmat>get$("myfile.json",JSN)</lang>
If the JSON data, e.g, an array, has to be read from a string value, use the MEM option on the get function, like this:
<lang bracmat>get$("[1,2,3]",JSN,MEM)</lang>
To convert the corresponding Bracmat data structure (,1 2 3) back to a JSON string, use
<lang bracmat>jsn$(,1 2 3)</lang>
To write a JSON string "[1,2,3]" to a file "array.json", use
<lang bracmat>put$("[1,2,3]","array.json",NEW)</lang>
Bracmat and JSON/Javascript do far from represent data in similar ways.
Bracmat has arbitrary-precision arithmetic. Floating point numbers are not a native datatype in Bracmat.
Bracmat has no Boolean values true and false and no null value.
Bracmat has arrays and objects, but they are second class citizens. Most data is best represented as binary tree structures, with binary operators like the plus, comma, dot or white space sitting in the nodes and the atomic parts of the data sitting in the leaves.
The only data type that is somewhat the same in JSON/JavaScript and Bracmat is the string, but there is a slight difference in the representation of strings in code. Whereas strings in JSON always are enclosed in quotation marks, this is only necessary in Bracmat if a string contains operator characters or starts with flag characters.
Here are the mapping rules:
| Bracmat representation | JSON representation | Comment |
|---|---|---|
null
|
null
|
|
true
|
true
| |
false
|
false
| |
12345
|
12345
| |
2/3
|
6.66666666666666666667E-1
|
Most rational numbers cannot be represented as floating point numbers, see note (1) |
(.string)
|
"string"
| |
(,1 2)
|
[1,2]
| |
((a.1)+(b.2),)
|
{"a":1,"b":2}
|
The + operator sorts its arguments. See note (2)
|
Note (1) All floating point numbers can be represented as rational numbers. Therefore, a round trip of a Bracmat number to a JSON number and back to a Bracmat number can give a different number: 2/3 becomes 666666666666666666667/1000000000000000000000.
Note (2) The objects {"a":1,"b":2} and {"b":2,"a":1} are equivalent in Bracmat, as they are both internally represented as ((a.1)+(b.2),)
Here is a full round trip of the following JSON data, which is assumed to be stored in a file "rosetta.json". The employed code is: <lang bracmat> ( get$("rosetta.json",JSN):?json & lst$(json,"json.bra",NEW) & put$(jsn$!json,"rosetta-roundtrip.json",NEW) )</lang>

The file "rosetta-roundtrip.json" will contain a single line. There is no beautify option when constructing a JSON string using the jsn function. The http://jsonlint.com service can be used to view the JSON string, but notice that some of the numbers are to big to be handled by this service and are turned into null values.

C
Reads a snippet of JSON into YAJL's tree format, then walks the tree to print it back out again. The tree contains numbers both in an unparsed, string form, and also converted to long long or double when possible. The example below demonstrates both ways of dealing with numbers.
<lang C>#include <stdio.h>
- include <stdlib.h>

EchoLisp
The json library allows to import/export basic JSON types (string ,numbers, arrays) and to translate EchoLisp objects (lists, dates, ..) from/to JSON objects and types. See reference documentation [[1]]. <lang lisp>
- JSON standard types
- strings, numbers, and arrays (vectors)
(export-json #(6 7 8 9)) → "[6,7,8,9]" (export-json #("alpha" "beta" "gamma")) → "["alpha","beta","gamma"]"
(json-import "[6,7,8,9]") → #( 6 7 8 9) (json-import #<< ["alpha","beta","gamma"] >>#) → #( "alpha" "beta" "gamma")
- EchoLisp types
- dates, rational, complex, big int
(export-json 3/4) → "{"_instanceof":"Rational","a":3,"b":4}" (json-import #<< {"_instanceof":"Rational","a":666,"b":42} >>#) → 111/7
- Symbols
(export-json 'Simon-Gallubert) → "{"_instanceof":"Symbol","name":"Simon-Gallubert"}" (json-import #<< {"_instanceof":"Symbol","name":"Antoinette-de-Gabolde"} >>#)
→ Antoinette-de-Gabolde
- Lists
(define my-list
(export-json '( 43 4 5 ( 6 7 ( 8 9 )))))
→ "{"_instanceof":"List" ,"array":[43,4,5,{"_instanceof":"List",
"array":[6,7,{"_instanceof":"List",
"array":[8,9],"circular":false}],"circular":false}],"circular":false}"
(json-import my-list) → (43 4 5 (6 7 (8 9)))
- Structures
(struct Person (name pict)) → #struct:Person [name pict] (define antoinette (Person "antoinette" "👰")) → # (antoinette 👰)
(export-json antoinette) →
"{"_instanceof":"Struct", "struct":"Person","id":17,"fields":["antoinette","👰"]}"
(json-import
#<< {"_instanceof":"Struct","struct":"Person","id":18,"fields":["simon","🎩"]} >>#)
→ # (simon 🎩)
</lang>
EGL
Structures used both to construct and to parse JSON strings: <lang EGL>record familyMember person person; relationships relationship[]?; end
record person firstName string; lastName string; age int; end
record relationship relationshipType string; id int; end</lang>
Construct JSON string: <lang EGL>people Person[]; // Array of people
people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Frederick", lastName = "Flintstone", age = 35} ); people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Wilma", lastName = "Flintstone", age = 34} ); people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Pebbles", lastName = "Flintstone", age = 2} ); people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Bernard", lastName = "Rubble", age = 32} ); people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Elizabeth", lastName = "Rubble", age = 29} ); people.appendElement(new Person { firstName = "Bam Bam", lastName = "Rubble", age = 2} );
family Dictionary; // A dictionary of family members using a uid as key family["1"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[1], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="spouse", id = 2 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="child", id = 3}] }; family["2"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[2], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="spouse", id = 1 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="child", id = 3}] }; family["3"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[3], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="mother", id = 2 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="father", id = 1}] }; family["4"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[4], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="spouse", id = 5 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="child", id = 6}] }; family["5"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[5], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="spouse", id = 4 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="child", id = 6}] }; family["6"] = new FamilyMember{ person = people[6], relationships = [new Relationship{ relationshipType="mother", id = 5 }, new Relationship{ relationshipType="father", id = 4}] };
// Convert dictionary of family members to JSON string jsonString string = jsonLib.convertToJSON(family);
// Show JSON string SysLib.writeStdout(jsonString);</lang>
- Raw Output:
{
"1":{"person":{"firstName":"Frederick","lastName":"Flintstone","age":35},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"spouse","id":2},{"relationshipType":"child","id":3}]},
"2":{"person":{"firstName":"Wilma","lastName":"Flintstone","age":34},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"spouse","id":1},{"relationshipType":"child","id":3}]},
"3":{"person":{"firstName":"Pebbles","lastName":"Flintstone","age":2},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"mother","id":2},{"relationshipType":"father","id":1}]},
"4":{"person":{"firstName":"Bernard","lastName":"Rubble","age":32},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"spouse","id":5},{"relationshipType":"child","id":6}]},
"5":{"person":{"firstName":"Elizabeth","lastName":"Rubble","age":29},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"spouse","id":4},{"relationshipType":"child","id":6}]},
"6":{"person":{"firstName":"Bam Bam","lastName":"Rubble","age":2},"relationships":[{"relationshipType":"mother","id":5},{"relationshipType":"father","id":4}]}
}
- Validated Output (partial):

"person": {
"firstName": "Frederick",
"lastName": "Flintstone",

Parse JSON: <lang EGL>// Convert JSON string into dictionary of family members family Dictionary; jsonLib.convertFromJSON(jsonString, family);
// List family members and their relationships familyMember FamilyMember; relation FamilyMember;
keys string[] = family.getKeys(); for(i int from 1 to keys.getSize())
SysLib.writeStdout("----------------------------------------------------");
familyMember = family[keys[i]];
SysLib.writeStdout(familyMember.person.lastName + ", " + familyMember.person.firstName + " - " + familyMember.person.age);
for(j int from 1 to familyMember.relationships.getSize()) id string = familyMember.relationships[j].id; relation = family[id]; SysLib.writeStdout(familyMember.relationships[j].relationshipType + ": " + relation.person.lastName + ", " + relation.person.firstName); end
end</lang>
- Output:
Flintstone, Frederick - 35 spouse: Flintstone, Wilma child: Flintstone, Pebbles ---------------------------------------------------- Flintstone, Wilma - 34 spouse: Flintstone, Frederick child: Flintstone, Pebbles ---------------------------------------------------- Flintstone, Pebbles - 2 mother: Flintstone, Wilma father: Flintstone, Frederick ---------------------------------------------------- Rubble, Bernard - 32 spouse: Rubble, Elizabeth child: Rubble, Bam Bam ---------------------------------------------------- Rubble, Elizabeth - 29 spouse: Rubble, Bernard child: Rubble, Bam Bam ---------------------------------------------------- Rubble, Bam Bam - 2 mother: Rubble, Elizabeth father: Rubble, Bernard
The examples above illustrate that it is possible to perform manual conversions to and from a JSON format but in EGL it is much more common for the programming language to handle these conversion automatically as a natural part of service invocations. Below is an example of a function definition designed to consume the Google Maps Geocoding service. The results are returned in a JSON format and parsed by EGL into records that mirror the structure of the reply.
<lang EGL>// Service function definition function geocode(address String) returns (GoogleGeocoding) {
@Resource{uri = "binding:GoogleGeocodingBinding"},
@Rest{method = _GET, uriTemplate = "/json?address={address}&sensor=false",
requestFormat = None, responseFormat = JSON}
}
// Invoke service function call geocode("111 Maple Street, Somewhere, CO") returning to callback;
function callBack(result GoogleGeocoding in)
SysLib.writeStdout(result.status); SysLib.writeStdout(result.results[1].geometry.location.lat); SysLib.writeStdout(result.results[1].geometry.location.lng);
end</lang>

FunL
Since FunL map syntax is conforms to JSON, the built-in function
eval() can be used to parse a JSON string.
Built-in println() also produces JSON conformant output.
This method only uses built-in functions but is comparatively slow.
<lang funl>println( eval('{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }') )</lang>
Using module json gives better performance and also pretty prints the JSON output.
<lang funl>import json.*
DefaultJSONWriter.write( JSONReader({'ints', 'bigInts'}).fromString('{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }') )</lang>
- Output:
{"foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"]}
{
"foo": 1,
"bar": [
10,
"apples"
]
}
Go
Example below shows simple correspondence between JSON objects and Go maps, and shows that you don't have to know anything about the structure of the JSON data to read it in. <lang go>package main
import "encoding/json" import "fmt"
func main() {
var data interface{}
err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(`{"foo":1, "bar":[10, "apples"]}`), &data)
if err == nil {
fmt.Println(data)
} else {
fmt.Println(err)
}
sample := map[string]interface{}{
"blue": []interface{}{1, 2},
"ocean": "water",
}
json_string, err := json.Marshal(sample)
if err == nil {
fmt.Println(string(json_string))
} else {
fmt.Println(err)
}
}</lang>
- Output:
map[bar:[10 apples] foo:1]
{"blue":[1,2],"ocean":"water"}
Example below demonstrates more typical case where you have an expected correspondence between JSON data and some composite data types in your program, and shows how the correspondence doesn't have to be exact. <lang go>package main
import "encoding/json" import "fmt"
type Person struct {
Name string `json:"name"` Age int `json:"age,omitempty"` Addr *Address `json:"address,omitempty"` Ph []string `json:"phone,omitempty"`
}
type Address struct {
Street string `json:"street"` City string `json:"city"` State string `json:"state"` Zip string `json:"zip"`
}
func main() {
// compare with output, note apt field ignored, missing fields
// have zero values.
jData := []byte(`{
"name": "Smith",
"address": {
"street": "21 2nd Street",
"apt": "507",
"city": "New York",
"state": "NY",
"zip": "10021"
}
}`)
var p Person
err := json.Unmarshal(jData, &p)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
} else {
fmt.Printf("%+v\n %+v\n\n", p, p.Addr)
}
// compare with output, note empty fields omitted.
pList := []Person{
{
Name: "Jones",
Age: 21,
},
{
Name: "Smith",
Addr: &Address{"21 2nd Street", "New York", "NY", "10021"},
Ph: []string{"212 555-1234", "646 555-4567"},
},
}
jData, err = json.MarshalIndent(pList, "", " ")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
} else {
fmt.Println(string(jData))
}
}</lang>
- Output:
{Name:Smith Age:0 Addr:0xf840026080 Ph:[]}
&{Street:21 2nd Street City:New York State:NY Zip:10021}

Gosu
Gosu consumes JSON as a Dynamic type via this core API: <lang javascript> gw.lang.reflect.json.Json#fromJson( String json ) : javax.script.Bindings </lang> As the signature of the method suggests, you pass in a JSON string and receive standard script Bindings in return. Bindings is basically a map mirroring the tree structure of the JSON object. Internally Gosu supports any Bindings instance as a Dynamic Expando object. Essentially this means you can directly cast any Bindings instance to Dynamic and treat it as an Expando.
The following JSON example illustrates this:
Sample Person JSON (from http://gosu-lang.github.io/data/person.json): <lang javascript>{
"Name": "Dickson Yamada",
"Age": 39,
"Address": {
"Number": 9604,
"Street": "Donald Court",
"City": "Golden Shores",
"State": "FL"
},
"Hobby": [
{
"Category": "Sport",
"Name": "Baseball"
},
{
"Category": "Recreation",
"Name": "Hiking"
}
]
} </lang> And the dynamic Gosu code to access it: <lang javascript> var personUrl = new URL( "http://gosu-lang.github.io/data/person.json" ) var person: Dynamic = personUrl.JsonContent print( person.Name ) </lang> Notice the JsonContent property on URL: <lang javascript> personUrl.JsonContent </lang> This is a convenient enhancement property Gosu provides for Java’s URL class. It does all the work to get the JSON text and calls the new Json#fromJson() method for you. It also declares the Dynamic type for you as its return type, so the declared Dynamic type on the person var is unnecessary; it’s there to clearly demonstrate that the person var is indeed Dynamic.
As you can see we can access the Name property from the JSON object from the person var. This is all well and good, but falls short of our desired level of JSON support. Gosu being a static language, we really want that Name reference to be statically verified as well as code-completed in the IDE.
Here’s how we make the previous example work statically: <lang javascript> print( person.toStructure( "Person", false ) ) </lang> Gosu enhances Bindings with the method, toStructure( name: String, mutable: boolean ). Note the resulting structure is optionally mutable via the mutable argument. This method generates the complete nesting of types plus convenient factory methods: <lang javascript> structure Person {
static function fromJson( jsonText: String ): Person {
return gw.lang.reflect.json.Json.fromJson( jsonText ) as Person
}
static function fromJsonUrl( url: String ): Person {
return new java.net.URL( url ).JsonContent
}
static function fromJsonUrl( url: java.net.URL ): Person {
return url.JsonContent
}
static function fromJsonFile( file: java.io.File ) : Person {
return fromJsonUrl( file.toURI().toURL() )
}
property get Address(): Address
property get Hobby(): List<Hobby>
property get Age(): Integer
property get Name(): String
structure Address {
property get Number(): Integer
property get State(): String
property get Street(): String
property get City(): String
}
structure Hobby {
property get Category(): String
property get Name(): String
}
} </lang> The Person structure reflects the JSON object’s implied type nesting. You can do whatever you like with this type. You can embed it as an inner structure in an existing class or make a top-level type. In any case all the types in the JSON object are uniquely preserved in one structure. Use it like this: <lang javascript> var person = Person.fromJsonUrl( personUrl ) print( person.Name ) print( person.Address.City ) print( person.Hobby[0].Name ) </lang> All statically verified and fully code completion friendly!
Other features: <lang javascript> print( person.toJson() ) // toJson() generates the Expando bindings to a JSON string print( person.toGosu() ) // toGosu() generates any Bindings instance to a Gosu Expando initializer string print( person.toXml() ) // toXml() generates any Bindings instance to standard XML </lang> And similar to JavaScript, you can directly evaluate a Gosu Expando initializer string: <lang javascript> var clone = eval( person.toGosu() ) </lang>
Groovy
Solution requires Groovy 1.8 or later.
Note that JsonSlurper accepts an extra comma such as [1,2,3,]. This is an extension to the [JSON grammar].
<lang groovy>def slurper = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper() def result = slurper.parseText( {
"people":[
{"name":{"family":"Flintstone","given":"Frederick"},"age":35,"relationships":{"wife":"people[1]","child":"people[4]"}},
{"name":{"family":"Flintstone","given":"Wilma"},"age":32,"relationships":{"husband":"people[0]","child":"people[4]"}},
{"name":{"family":"Rubble","given":"Barnard"},"age":30,"relationships":{"wife":"people[3]","child":"people[5]"}},
{"name":{"family":"Rubble","given":"Elisabeth"},"age":32,"relationships":{"husband":"people[2]","child":"people[5]"}},
{"name":{"family":"Flintstone","given":"Pebbles"},"age":1,"relationships":{"mother":"people[1]","father":"people[0]"}},
{"name":{"family":"Rubble","given":"Bam-Bam"},"age":1,"relationships":{"mother":"people[3]","father":"people[2]"}},
]
} )</lang>
Test: <lang groovy>result.each { println it.key; it.value.each {person -> println person} }
assert result.people[0].name == [family:'Flintstone', given:'Frederick'] assert result.people[4].age == 1 assert result.people[2].relationships.wife == 'people[3]' assert result.people[3].name == [family:'Rubble', given:'Elisabeth'] assert Eval.x(result, 'x.' + result.people[2].relationships.wife + '.name') == [family:'Rubble', given:'Elisabeth'] assert Eval.x(result, 'x.' + result.people[1].relationships.husband + '.name') == [family:'Flintstone', given:'Frederick']</lang>
- Output:
people [age:35, name:[given:Frederick, family:Flintstone], relationships:[child:people[4], wife:people[1]]] [age:32, name:[given:Wilma, family:Flintstone], relationships:[child:people[4], husband:people[0]]] [age:30, name:[given:Barnard, family:Rubble], relationships:[child:people[5], wife:people[3]]] [age:32, name:[given:Elisabeth, family:Rubble], relationships:[child:people[5], husband:people[2]]] [age:1, name:[given:Pebbles, family:Flintstone], relationships:[mother:people[1], father:people[0]]] [age:1, name:[given:Bam-Bam, family:Rubble], relationships:[mother:people[3], father:people[2]]]

Note that these are not strict inverses of each other. These routines allow data to be extracted from json and packed into json format, but only in a minimalistic sense. No attempts are made to preserve the subtleties of type and structure which json can carry. This should be good enough for most applications which are required to deal with json but will not be adequate for ill behaved applications which exploit the typing mechanism to carry significant information.
Also, a different serializer will probably be necessary, if you are delivering json to legacy javascript. Nevertheless, these simplifications are probably appropriate for practical cases.
Java
This uses Gson, a library to convert JSON to Java objects and vice-versa. <lang Java>import com.google.gson.Gson;
public class JsonExample {
public static void main(String[] args) { Gson gson = new Gson(); String json = "{ \"foo\": 1, \"bar\": [ \"10\", \"apples\"] }";
MyJsonObject obj = gson.fromJson(json, MyJsonObject.class);
System.out.println(obj.getFoo());
for(String bar : obj.getBar()) { System.out.println(bar); }
obj = new MyJsonObject(2, new String[] { "20", "oranges" }); json = gson.toJson(obj);
System.out.println(json); }
}
class MyJsonObject {
private int foo; private String[] bar;
public MyJsonObject(int foo, String[] bar) { this.foo = foo; this.bar = bar; }
public int getFoo() { return foo; }
public String[] getBar() { return bar; }
}</lang>
JavaScript
Requires JSON library, now present in all major browsers. <lang JavaScript>var data = JSON.parse('{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }');
var sample = { "blue": [1,2], "ocean": "water" }; var json_string = JSON.stringify(sample);</lang>
JSON is called JavaScript Object Notation, but JSON differs form JavaScript object literal. cf. MDN/JSON
jq
JSON is jq's native data format, so nothing need be done to parse JSON input. For example, to "pretty print" a stream of JSON entities (including scalars), it would be sufficient to use the jq program:<lang jq> . </lang>
Here are the jq equivalents of the examples given in the section on Julia, assuming the file data.json holds the following JSON text:
{ "blue": [1,2], "ocean": "water" }
<lang jq>jq -c . data.json</lang> produces:
{"blue":[1,2],"ocean":"water"}
<lang jq>jq tostring data.json</lang> produces: "{\"blue\":[1,2],\"ocean\":\"water\"}"

Kotlin
We use Kotlin JS here to obtain access to the JavaScript JSON object: <lang scala>// version 1.2.21
data class JsonObject(val foo: Int, val bar: Array<String>)
data class JsonObject2(val ocean: String, val blue: Array<Int>)
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
// JSON to object
val data: JsonObject = JSON.parse("""{ "foo": 1, "bar": ["10", "apples"] }""")
println(JSON.stringify(data))
// object to JSON
val data2 = JsonObject2("water", arrayOf(1, 2))
println(JSON.stringify(data2))
}</lang>
- Output:
{"foo":1,"bar":["10","apples"]}
{"ocean":"water","blue":[1,2]}
Lasso
<lang Lasso>// Javascript objects are represented by maps in Lasso local(mymap = map( 'success' = true, 'numeric' = 11, 'string' = 'Eleven' ))
json_serialize(#mymap) // {"numeric": 11,"string": "Eleven","success": true}
'
'
// Javascript arrays are represented by arrays local(opendays = array( 'Monday', 'Tuesday' ))
local(closeddays = array( 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday' ))
json_serialize(#opendays) // ["Monday", "Tuesday"]
'
'
json_serialize(#closeddays) // ["Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"]
'
'
- mymap -> insert('Open' = #opendays)
- mymap -> insert('Closed' = #closeddays)
local(myjson = json_serialize(#mymap))
- myjson // {"Closed": ["Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"],"numeric": 11,"Open": ["Monday", "Tuesday"],"string": "Eleven","success": true}
'
'
json_deserialize(#myjson) // map(Closed = array(Wednesday, Thursday, Friday), numeric = 11, Open = array(Monday, Tuesday), string = Eleven, success = true)</lang>
LFE
This example uses the third-party library "Jiffy".
Encoding
<lang lisp> (: jiffy encode (list 1 2 3 '"apple" 'true 3.14)) </lang>
The result from that can be made a little more legible with the following: <lang lisp> (: erlang binary_to_list
(: jiffy encode (list 1 2 3 '"apple" 'true 3.14)))
</lang>
Decoding
We can run the encoding example in reverse, and get back what we put in above with the following: <lang lisp> (: jiffy decode '"[1,2,3,[97,112,112,108,101],true,3.14]") </lang>
Here's a key-value example: <lang lisp> (: jiffy decode '"{\"foo\": [1, 2, 3]}") </lang>
Decoding to Patterns
We can also extract the key and value using Erlang patterns: <lang lisp> (let (((tuple (list (tuple key value)))
(: jiffy decode '"{\"foo\": [1, 2, 3]}")))
(: io format '"~p: ~p~n" (list key value)))
</lang>
Lingo
Lingo has no native JSON support. A JSON library could of course be written in pure Lingo or as binary plugin ("Xtra").
But since Director - the only implementation of Lingo - also includes a SpiderMonkey JS engine (rather outdated and without native JSON object), we can implement a simple (unsafe) JSON encoder/decoder with the following two movie scripts:
JavaScript movie script "JSON": <lang javascript>//-------------------------------------- // Simple (unsafe) JSON decoder based on eval() // @param {string} json // @return {any} //-------------------------------------- function json_decode (json){
var o;
eval('o='+json);
return _json_decode_val(o);
}
function _json_decode_val (o){
if (o==null) return undefined;
switch(typeof(o)){
case "object":
if (o instanceof Array){
var v = list();
var cnt = o.length;
for (i=0;i<cnt;i++){
v.add(_json_decode_val(o[i]));
}
}else{
var v = propList();
for (var i in o){
var p = i;
v.setAProp(_json_decode_val(p), _json_decode_val(o[i]));
}
}
return v;
case "string":
// optional support of special Lingo data type 'symbol' unknown to JavaScript
if (o.substr(0,7)=='__sym__') return symbol(o.substr(7));
return o;
default:
return o;
}
}
function _json_escape_string (str){
var hash={"\\":"\\\\", "/":"\\/", "\n":"\\n", "\t":"\\t", "\r":"\\r", "\b":"\\b", "\f":"\\f", "\"":"\\\""};
var patt = "["; for (i in hash) patt+=i;patt+="]";
return str.replace(RegExp(patt, "g"), function(c){
return hash[c]

Lua
Using the luajson library:
<lang lua>local json = require("json")
local json_data = [=[[
42,
3.14159,
[ 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, "apples", "bananas", "cherries" ],
{ "H": 1, "He": 2, "X": null, "Li": 3 },
null,
true,
false
]]=]
print("Original JSON: " .. json_data) local data = json.decode(json_data) json.util.printValue(data, 'Lua') print("JSON re-encoded: " .. json.encode(data))
local data = {
42,
3.14159,
{
2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,
"apples",
"bananas",
"cherries"
},
{
H = 1,
He = 2,
X = json.util.null(),
Li = 3
},
json.util.null(),
true,
false
}
print("JSON from new Lua data: " .. json.encode(data))</lang>
Since in Lua nil signifies an undefined value, i.e. a variable or table entry with a nil value is undistinguishable from an undefined variable or non-existing table entry, a null value in JSON notation is decoded to a special function value, which ensures that it can be re-encoded properly to null again.
To manually insert a null value in the JSON output,
use the json.util.null function.
- Output:

PicoLisp
PicoLisp has no JSON library, but it is easy enough to write one. The following supports only fixpoint numbers (no floating point, as it doesn't exist in PicoLisp). Arrays and objects are both mapped to lists. <lang PicoLisp>(de checkJson (X Item)
(unless (= X Item)
(quit "Bad JSON" Item) ) )
(de readJson ()
(case (read "_")
("{"
(make
(for (X (readJson) (not (= "}" X)) (readJson))
(checkJson ":" (readJson))
(link (cons X (readJson)))
(T (= "}" (setq X (readJson))))
(checkJson "," X) ) ) )
("["
(make
(link T) # Array marker
(for (X (readJson) (not (= "]" X)) (readJson))
(link X)
(T (= "]" (setq X (readJson))))
(checkJson "," X) ) ) )
(T
(let X @
(cond
((pair X) (pack X))
((and (= "-" X) (format (peek)))
(- (read)) )
(T X) ) ) ) ) )
(de printJson (Item) # For simplicity, without indentation
(cond
((atom Item) (if Item (print @) (prin "{}")))
((=T (car Item))
(prin "[")
(map
'((X)
(printJson (car X))
(and (cdr X) (prin ", ")) )
(cdr Item) )
(prin "]") )
(T
(prin "{")
(map
'((X)
(print (caar X))
(prin ": ")
(printJson (cdar X))
(and (cdr X) (prin ", ")) )
Item )
(prin "}") ) ) )</lang>
This reads/prints JSON from/to files, pipes, sockets etc. To read from a string, a pipe can be used:
: (pipe (prinl "{ \"foo\": 1, \"bar\": [10, \"apples\"] }")
(readJson) )
-> (("foo" . 1) ("bar" T 10 "apples"))
: (printJson
(quote

("age" . 25)

("phone" T "212 555-1234" "646 555-4567") ) )

<lang PowerShell>
- JSON input is being stored in ordered hashtable.
- Ordered hashtable is available in PowerShell v3 and higher.
[ordered]@{ "foo"= 1; "bar"= 10, "apples" } | ConvertTo-Json
- ConvertFrom-Json converts a JSON-formatted string to a custom object.
- If you use the Invoke-RestMethod cmdlet there is not need for the ConvertFrom-Json cmdlet
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "http://date.jsontest.com" | ConvertFrom-Json </lang>
- Output:

Prolog
Using SWI-Prolog 7's library(http/json), and the new dict datatype, there is nearly transparent handling of JSON objects. All of the serialization and parsing in the following code is accomplished with two predicates. The rest of the code is for the sake of example.
<lang Prolog>:- use_module([ library(http/json),
library(func) ]).
test_json('{"widget": { "debug": "on", "window": { "title": "Sample Konfabulator Widget", "name": "main_window", "width": 500, "height": 500 }, "image": { "src": "Images/Sun.png", "name": "sun1", "hOffset": 250, "vOffset": 250, "alignment": "center" }, "text": { "data": "Click Here", "size": 36, "style": "bold", "name": "text1", "hOffset": 250, "vOffset": 100, "alignment": "center", "onMouseUp": "sun1.opacity = (sun1.opacity / 100) * 90;" }}}').
reading_JSON_term :-
atom_json_dict(test_json(~), Dict, []), %% This accomplishes reading in the JSON data
writeln( 'JSON as Prolog dict: ~w~n'
$ Dict),
writeln( 'Access field "widget.text.data": ~s~n'
$ Dict.widget.text.data),
writeln( 'Alter field "widget": ~w~n'
$ Dict.put(widget, "Altered")).
searalize_a_JSON_term :-
Dict = _{book:_{title:"To Mock a Mocking Bird",

}},
json_write(current_output, Dict). %% This accomplishes serializing the JSON object.</lang>

Python
<lang Python>>>> import json >>> data = json.loads('{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }') >>> sample = { "blue": [1,2], "ocean": "water" } >>> json_string = json.dumps(sample) >>> json_string '{"blue": [1, 2], "ocean": "water"}' >>> sample {'blue': [1, 2], 'ocean': 'water'} >>> data {'foo': 1, 'bar': [10, 'apples']}</lang>
Because most of JSON is valid Python syntax (except "true", "false", and "null", and a few obscure escape sequences), it is also possible (but not recommended) to parse JSON using eval(): <lang python>>>> true = True; false = False; null = None >>> data = eval('{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }') >>> data {'foo': 1, 'bar': [10, 'apples']}</lang>

Rust
Serializing and deserializing JSON in Rust is done by libraries.
<lang toml>[dependencies] serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] } serde_json = "1.0"</lang>
Serde is a general serialization/deserialization library. Serde-JSON implements JSON serialization for Serde.
Using said library is quite straight forward, one simply derives Serialize/Deserialize onto the types they want to convert into and from JSON strings.
<lang rust>use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]
struct Point {
x: i32, y: i32,
}</lang>
Said type could then be used as such:
<lang rust>fn main() {
let point = Point { x: 1, y: 2 };
let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&point).unwrap(); let deserialized: Point = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
println!("serialized = {}", serialized);
println!("deserialized = {:?}", deserialized);
}</lang>
The result of which is type-checked JSON (where extra entries get ignored), without need of a key-value container.
- Output:
serialized = {"x":1,"y":2}
deserialized = Point { x: 1, y: 2 }
It also handles more Rust specific types like enums, tuples, struct tuples, and zero-sized types.
<lang rust>#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)] struct W { a: i32, b: i32 } // => { "a": 0, "b": 0 }
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct X(i32, i32); // => [0, 0]
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct Y(i32); // => 0
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct Z; // => null
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
enum E {
W { a: i32, b: i32 }, // => { "W": { "a": 0, "b": 0 } }
X(i32, i32), // => { "X": [0, 0] }
Y(i32), // => { "Y": 0 }
Z, // => { "Z" }
}</lang>
The traits are also implemented for HashMap and Vec which can be used as conventional objects/arrays, on top of macros and serde_json::Value to handle all other potentially weird edge cases.
<lang rust>use std::collections::HashMap; use serde_json::Value;
- [derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct Data {
points: Vec<Points>,
#[serde(flatten)] metadata: HashMap<String, Value>,
}</lang>
In this example metadata would simply capture all other additional entries, for example:
<lang rust>fn main() {
let data = {
let mut metadata = HashMap::new();
metadata.insert("triangle".to_string(), Value::Number(3.into()));
metadata.insert("square".to_string(), Value::Bool(false));
Data {
points: vec![Point { x: 1, y: 2 }, Point { x: 15, y: 32 }],
metadata,
}
};
let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&data).unwrap(); let deserialized: Data = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap();
println!("serialized = {}", serialized);
println!("deserialized = {:?}", deserialized);
}</lang>
- Output:
serialized = {"points":[{"x":1,"y":2},{"x":15,"y":32}],"square":false,"triangle":3}
deserialized = Data { points: [Point { x: 1, y: 2 }, Point { x: 15, y: 32 }], metadata: {"triangle": Number(3), "square": Bool(false)} }
Scala
Using the builtin parsing lib (debatably slower than third-party libs such as lift-json from Liftweb).
<lang scala>scala> import scala.util.parsing.json.{JSON, JSONObject} import scala.util.parsing.json.{JSON, JSONObject}
scala> JSON.parseFull("""{"foo": "bar"}""") res0: Option[Any] = Some(Map(foo -> bar))
scala> JSONObject(Map("foo" -> "bar")).toString() res1: String = {"foo" : "bar"} </lang>
Scheme
Using the json egg: <lang scheme> (use json) (define object-example
(with-input-from-string "{\"foo\": \"bar\", \"baz\": [1, 2, 3]}"
json-read))
(pp object-example)
- this prints #(("foo" . "bar") ("baz" 1 2 3))
(json-write #([foo . bar]
[baz 1 2 3]
[qux . #((rosetta . code))]))
- this writes the following
- {"foo"
- "bar", "baz": [1, 2, 3], "qux": {"foo": "bar"}}
</lang>
SenseTalk
<lang SenseTalk>set jsonString to <<{"foo": 10, "bar": [1, 2, 3]}>> put JSONValue(jsonString)
set dataObject to (string_value: "lorem ipsum", int_value: 314, array_value: (2, 4, 6)) put JSONFormat(dataObject)</lang>
Sidef
<lang ruby>var json = require('JSON').new; var data = json.decode('{"blue": [1, 2], "ocean": "water"}'); say data; data{:ocean} = Hash.new(water => %w[fishy salty]); say json.encode(data);</lang>
- Output:
Hash.new(
'blue' => [1, 2],
'ocean' => 'water'
)
{"blue":[1,2],"ocean":{"water":["fishy","salty"]}}
Smalltalk
Use the NeoJSON library: NeoJSON <lang smalltalk> NeoJSONReader fromString: '{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }'. </lang>
- Output:
a Dictionary('bar'->#(10 'apples') 'foo'->1 )
Standard ML

Data storage in strings, so floating point numbers can be written back as received, in a recursive polymorphic structure, which can also be used to store the data as SML-types.

{"blue": [1, 2], "ocean": "water"}
Tcl
For parsing JSON,
provides the capability (see the Tcler's Wiki page on it for more discussion):
<lang tcl>package require json set sample {{ "foo": 1, "bar": [10, "apples"] }}
set parsed [json::json2dict $sample] puts $parsed</lang>
- Output:
foo 1 bar {10 apples}
However, that package is very weak in its generation of JSON because Tcl's official type system is substantially different to that envisaged by JSON. It's possible to work around this though the use of Tcl 8.6, as this next example shows:
<lang tcl>package require Tcl 8.6 package require json::write
proc tcl2json value {
# Guess the type of the value; deep *UNSUPPORTED* magic!
regexp {^value is a (.*?) with a refcount} \
[::tcl::unsupported::representation $value] -> type
switch $type {
string { return [json::write string $value] } dict { return [json::write object {*}[ dict map {k v} $value {tcl2json $v}]] } list { return [json::write array {*}[lmap v $value {tcl2json $v}]] } int - double { return [expr {$value}] } booleanString { return [expr {$value ? "true" : "false"}] } default { # Some other type; do some guessing... if {$value eq "null"} { # Tcl has *no* null value at all; empty strings are semantically # different and absent variables aren't values. So cheat! return $value } elseif {[string is integer -strict $value]} { return [expr {$value}] } elseif {[string is double -strict $value]} { return [expr {$value}] } elseif {[string is boolean -strict $value]} { return [expr {$value ? "true" : "false"}] } return [json::write string $value] }
}
}</lang>
Sample code (note that the value is built with dict create and list so that there is some auxiliary type hints available, which the above procedure can read):
<lang tcl>set d [dict create blue [list 1 2] ocean water]
puts [tcl2json $d]</lang>
- Output:
{
"blue" : [1,2],
"ocean" : "water"
}
Note that this is capable of correctly handling the round-trip of values parsed from the json package described above.
TXR
Parsing
The following implements the parsing half of the task. It is a parser closely based on the JSON grammar [[2]].
It is implemented with recursive horizontal pattern matching functions, and so basically the definition resembles a grammar. Horizontal functions are a new feature in TXR, and basically allow the language to easily specify LL grammars with indefinite lookahead, not restricted to regular languages (thanks to TXR's backtracking). The numerous occurences of @\ in the code are line continuations. Horizontal functions must be written on one logical line. @\ eats the whitespace at the start of the next physical line, to allow indentation.
The parser translates to a nested list structure in which the types are labeled with the strings "O", "A", "N", "S" and "K". (Object, array, number, string, and keyword).
The largest grammar rule handles JSON string literals. The strategy is to generate a HTML string and then filter from HTML using the :from_html filter in TXR. For instance \uABCD is translated to ꯍ and then the filter will produce the proper Unicode character. Similarly \" is translated to " and \n is translated to
etc.
A little liberty is taken: the useless commas in JSON are treated as optional.
Superfluous terminating commas (not generated by the JSON grammar but accepted by some other parsers) are not allowed by this parser.

A few tests. Note, the badsyntax variable is bound to any trailing portion of the input that does not match the syntax. The call to the parser @(value v) extracts the longest prefix of the input which is consistent with the syntax, leaving the remainder to be matched into badsyntax.
<lang bash>$ echo -n '{ "a" : { "b" : 3, "c" : [1,2,3] } }[' | ./txr -l json.txr - (v "O" ((("S" "a") ("O" ((("S" "b") ("N" "3")) (("S" "c") ("A" (("N" "1") ("N" "2") ("N" "3"))))))))) (badsyntax . "[\n")

XQuery
The XPath 3.1 standard specifies an XML format to store JSON information. Different XQuery processors implement their own JSON parsers in addition to the XPath functions. One such function has been added, to show, how to map JSON into an XPath map using the BaseX processor. As XQuery is a superset of XPath, the following code is valid XQuery 3.1. Except for 'null', which does not exist in the XPath data model, all JSON datatypes have their XPath equivalent. 'Null' is being represented by the empty sequence. This gets shown at the last function invocation, which creates an XPath map. It may be interesting to note, that the different options for the json serializers and parsers have not been used here. <lang xquery> let $json := ' {
"Astring" : "string-value",
"Anumber" : 5.7,
"Anull" : null,
"Aarray" : ["One","Two", 3],
"Aobject" : {
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
},
"Atrue" : true,
"Afalse" : false
} ' let $xml := json-to-xml($local:json) return (
"XPath fn:json-to-xml#1 function:"
,""
,$xml
,""
,"Round trip, using fn:xml-to-json#1:"
,""
,xml-to-json($xml)
,""
,"Using BaseX json:parse#2 function to create an XPath 3.1 map:"
,""
,json:parse($local:json, map{"format":"xquery"})
)
</lang>
Result:
XPath fn:json-to-xml#1 function:
<map xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions">
<string key="Astring">string-value</string>
<number key="Anumber">5.7</number>
<null key="Anull"/>
<array key="Aarray">
<string>One</string>
<string>Two</string>
<number>3</number>
</array>
<map key="Aobject">
<string key="key1">value1</string>
<string key="key2">value2</string>
</map>
<boolean key="Atrue">true</boolean>
<boolean key="Afalse">false</boolean>
</map>
Round trip, using fn:xml-to-json#1:
{
"Astring":"string-value",
"Anumber":5.7,
"Anull":null,
"Aarray":[
"One",
"Two",
3
],
"Aobject":{
"key1":"value1",
"key2":"value2"
},
"Atrue":true,
"Afalse":false
}
Using BaseX json:parse#2 function to create an XPath 3.1 map:
map {
"Aobject": map {
"key1": "value1",
"key2": "value2"
},
"Afalse": false(),
"Anull": (),
"Anumber": 5.7e0,
"Atrue": true(),
"Astring": "string-value",
"Aarray": ["One", "Two", 3.0e0]
}
zkl
zkl has a JSON codec based on yajl.
To convert from JSON to zkl: <lang zkl>a,b:=Import.lib("zklYAJL"); var [const] YAJL=a, toJSON=b; src:=
- <<<
0'|{
"pi": 3.14,
"large number": 123456789123456791,
"an array": [
-1,
true,
false,
null,
"foo"
]
}|;
- <<<
obj:=YAJL().write(src).close(); // or obj:=src.pump(YAJL()).close(); // for example, from file or socket obj.println();</lang>
- Output:
D(pi:3.14,an array:L(-1,True,False,Void,"foo"),large number:123456789123456791)
From zkl to JSON: <lang zkl>// using above code plus: toJSON(obj).println();</lang>
- Output:
{"pi":3.1400000000,"an array":[-1,true,false,null,"foo"],"large number":123456789123456791}
