PyJSON5
==========

A JSON5 serializer and parser library for Python 3 written in
`Cython `_.

Serializer
----------

The serializer returns ASCII data that can safely be used in an HTML template.
Apostrophes, ampersands, greater-than, and less-then signs are encoded as
unicode escaped sequences. E.g. this snippet is safe for any and all input:

.. code:: html

"show message"

Unless the input contains infinite or NaN values, the result will be valid
`JSON `_ data.

Parser
------

All valid `JSON5 1.0.0 `_ and
`JSON `_ data can be read,
unless the nesting level is absurdly high.

Functions
---------

You can find the full documentation online at https://pyjson5.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
Or simply call ``help(pyjson5)``. :-)

The library supplies load(s) and dump(s) functions, so you can use it as a
drop-in replacement for Python's builtin ``json`` module, but you *should*
use the functions ``encode_*()`` and ``decode_*()`` instead.

Compatibility
-------------

At least CPython 3.5 or a recent Pypy3 version is needed.
