generic-aeson

Build Status

The structure of the generated JSON is meant to be close to idiomatic JSON. This means:

See tests/Main.hs in json-schema for more examples.

How does generic-aeson compare to the TH/Generics already present in aeson?

generic-aeson contains more special cases for creating more concise and idiomatic json. If you're working with the JSON representation directly generic-aeson should feel more natural.

Will the generated format ever change?

Changing the format would incur a breaking change to every API that uses generic-aeson so we must keep it intact.

If we find a bug where the fix changes the format we need to create a new package or version the generation code.

Schemas

json-schema has generic derivation of schemas that match the generic-aeson format.
