Functions

parse[str]

Parses a JSON string and returns the corresponding value.

const data be j.parse[//;{"name": "Purus", "version": 1};//]
console.log[data.name]  -- "Purus"

stringify[val]

Converts a value to a JSON string.

use p-json as j
const obj be [name be //;Purus;//, version be 1]
const text be j.stringify[obj]
console.log[text]  -- {"name":"Purus","version":1}

prettify[val; indent]

Converts a value to a pretty-printed JSON string. The indent parameter specifies the number of spaces (default: 2).

use p-json as j
const obj be [name be //;Purus;//, version be 1]
console.log[j.prettify[obj]]

-- }

console.log[j.prettify[obj; 4]]
-- {
--     "name": "Purus",
--     "version": 1
