Optimized JSON for Go is a high performance parser with a variety of additional JSON tools. OjG is optimized to processing huge data sets where data does not necessarily conform to a fixed structure.

Features

  • Fast JSON parser. Check out the cmd/benchmarks app in this repo.
  • Full JSONPath implemenation that operates on simple types as well as structs.
  • Generic types. Not the proposed golang generics but type safe JSON elements.
  • Fast JSON validator (7 times faster with io.Reader).
  • Fast JSON writer with a sort option (4 times faster).
  • JSON builder from JSON sources using a simple assembly plan.
  • Simple data builders using a push and pop approach.
  • Object encoding and decoding using an approach similar to that used with Oj for Ruby.
  • [Simple Encoding Notation](sen.md), a lazy way to write JSON omitting commas and quotes.

Using

A basic Parse:

    obj, err := oj.ParseString(`{
        "a":[
            {"x":1,"y":2,"z":3},
            {"x":2,"y":4,"z":6}
        ]
    }`)

Using JSONPath expressions:

    x, err := jp.ParseString("a[?(@.x > 1)].y")
    ys := x.Get(obj)
    // returns [4]

The oj command (cmd/oj) uses JSON path for filtering and extracting JSON elements. It also includes sorting, reformatting, and colorizing options.

$ oj -m "(@.name == 'Pete')" myfile.json

More complete examples are available in the go docs for most functions. The example for [Unmarshalling interfaces](oj/example_interface_test.go) demonstrates a feature that allows interfaces to be marshalled and unmarshalled.

Installation

go get github.com/ohler55/ojg
go get github.com/ohler55/ojg/cmd/oj

or just import in your .go files.

import (
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/alt"
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/asm"
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/gen"
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/jp"
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/oj"
    "github.com/ohler55/ojg/sen"
)

To build and install the oj application:
