# PlutoSerialization

This package provides `serialize` and `deserialize` functions which are

compatible with the standard library `Serialization` module's function, but are

able to handle serializing/deserializing data from/to `Pluto` notebooks.

## Details

Standard `Serialization` does not work inside `Pluto` notebooks since

evaluation of cells will increment the current "workspace" `Module` into which

definitions are evaluated. This is done to allow for re-definition of constants

such as type definitions, but means that `Serialization.serialize` will save

`Module` references that may not exist when we `deserialize` the file in a new

notebook session since the workspace number will not likely be the same.

This package implements a custom `Serialization.AbstractSerializer` that

searches all defined workspaces for valid definitions during `deserialize`

allowing it to not have to rely on fixed `Module` references. Aside from the

changes required for searching workspaces it should replicate the behaviour of

`Serialization`.
