JSON-GLib
===============================================================================
[](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/json-glib/pipelines)
JSON-GLib implements a full suite of JSON-related tools using GLib and GObject.
Use JSON-GLib it is possible to parse and generate valid JSON data
structures using a DOM-like API. JSON-GLib also integrates with GObject to
provide the ability to serialize and deserialize GObject instances to and from
JSON data types.
JSON is the JavaScript Object Notation; it can be used to represent objects and
object hierarchies while retaining human-readability.
GLib is a C library providing common and efficient data types for the C
developers.
GObject is a library providing a run-time Object Oriented type system for C
developers. GLib and GObject are extensively used by the GTK toolkit and by the
[GNOME][gnome] project.
For more information, see:
* [JSON][json]
* [GLib and GObject][glib]
* [JSON-GLib][json-glib]
Requirements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to build JSON-GLib you will need:
* python3
* [ninja](http://ninja-build.org)
* [meson](http://mesonbuild.com)
* pkg-config
* GLib, GIO ≥ 2.54
* GObject-Introspection ≥ 1.54 (optional)
Build and installation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To build JSON-GLib just run:
```sh
$ meson setup _build .
$ meson compile -C _build
$ meson test -C _build
$ meson install -C _build
```
See the [Meson documentation](http://mesonbuild.com) for more information.
Release notes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Prior to JSON-GLib 0.10, a JsonSerializable implementation could
automatically fall back to the default serialization code by simply
returning NULL from an overridden JsonSerializable::serialize-property
virtual function. Since JSON-GLib 0.10 this is not possible any more. A
JsonSerializable is always expected to serialize and deserialize all
properties. JSON-GLib provides public API for the default implementation
in case the serialization code wants to fall back to that.
