Description

Basic support for working with JSON values.

Synopsis

JSON Types

data JSValue Source #

JSON values

The type to which we encode Haskell values. There's a set of primitives, and a couple of heterogenous collection types.

Objects:

An object structure is represented as a pair of curly brackets surrounding zero or more name/value pairs (or members). A name is a string. A single colon comes after each name, separating the name from the value. A single comma separates a value from a following name.

Arrays:

An array structure is represented as square brackets surrounding zero or more values (or elements). Elements are separated by commas.

Only valid JSON can be constructed this way

fromString :: String -> JSValue #

JSON JSValue Source #

To ensure we generate valid JSON, we map Haskell types to JSValue internally, then pretty print that.

Wrapper Types

newtype JSString Source #

Strings can be represented a little more efficiently in JSON

Constructors

Fields

toJSString :: String -> JSString Source #

toJSObject :: [(String, a)] -> JSObject a Source #

Make JSON object out of an association list.

set_field :: JSObject a -> String -> a -> JSObject a Source #

Set the value of a field. Previous values are overwritten.
