JSON-C是一套用C寫的JSON format的parser和generator,可以將JSON字串正確parse,並且存成json_object進行操作(新增/刪除/修改),也可以將json_object轉成JSON字串,個人還蠻推薦的。

Parser
可以利用
json_tokener_parse()直接將字串轉成json_object,或是利用
json_object_from_file()直接將檔案轉成json_object。
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "json.h"
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
json_object *new_obj;
MC_SET_DEBUG(1);
new_obj = json_tokener_parse("/* more difficult test case */ { \"glossary\": { \"title\": \"example glossary\", \"GlossDiv\": { \"title\": \"S\", \"GlossList\": [ { \"ID\": \"SGML\", \"SortAs\": \"SGML\", \"GlossTerm\": \"Standard Generalized Markup Language\", \"Acronym\": \"SGML\", \"Abbrev\": \"ISO 8879:1986\", \"GlossDef\": \"A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.\", \"GlossSeeAlso\": [\"GML\", \"XML\", \"markup\"] } ] } } }");
printf("new_obj.to_string()=%s\n", json_object_to_json_string(new_obj));
json_object_put(new_obj);
return 0;
}
Generator基本上就是用json_object_to_json_string()將json_object轉成字串。
更多的範例可以參考source code裡面的test1.c。
