# JsonWay
[](https://travis-ci.org/rustless/jsonway)
JsonWay gives you a simple DSL for declaring JSON structures.
This is particularly helpful when the generation process is fraught with conditionals and loops.
It is inspired by [jbuilder](https://github.com/rails/jbuilder) and has similar functionality.
```toml
# Cargo.toml
[dependencies.jsonway]
git = "https://github.com/rustless/jsonway"
```
[API docs](https://docs.rs/jsonway/)
## Simple example
``` rust
jsonway::object(|json| {
json.set("first_name", "Luke".to_string());
json.set("last_name", "Skywalker".to_string());
json.object("info", |json| {
json.set("homeworld", "Tatooine".to_string());
json.set("born", "19 BBY".to_string());
json.set("died", "Between 45 ABY and 137 ABY".to_string());
});
json.array("masters", |json| {
json.push("Obi-Wan Kenobi".to_string());
json.push("Yoda".to_string());
json.push("Joruus C'baoth (Briefly)".to_string());
json.push("Darth Sidious (Briefly)".to_string());
});
});
// {
// "first_name": "Luke",
// "last_name": "Skywalker",
// "info": {
// "born": "19 BBY",
// "died": "Between 45 ABY and 137 ABY",
// "homeworld": "Tatooine"
// },
// "masters": [
// "Obi-Wan Kenobi",
// "Yoda",
// "Joruus C'baoth (Briefly)",
// "Darth Sidious (Briefly)"
// ]
// }
```
## Build with iterators
~~~rust
#[derive(Debug)]
enum Side {
Light,
Dark
}
struct Jedi {
name: String,
side: Side
}
let jedi = vec![
Jedi { name: "Saes Rrogon".to_string(), side: Side::Dark },
Jedi { name: "Qui-Gon Jinn".to_string(), side: Side::Light },
Jedi { name: "Obi-Wan Kenobi".to_string(), side: Side::Light }
];
let light_jedi_objects_list = jsonway::array(|json| {
// Use `objects` method to make list of objects
json.objects(&mut jedi.iter(), |jedi, json| {
match jedi.side {
Side::Light => {
json.set("name".to_string(), jedi.name.to_string());
json.set("side".to_string(), format!("{:?}", jedi.side));
}
Side::Dark => json.skip(),
}
})
});
// [
// {
// "name": "Qui-Gon Jinn",
// "side": "Light"
// },
// {
// "name": "Obi-Wan Kenobi",
// "side": "Light"
// }
// ]
let light_jedi_tuple_list = jsonway::array(|json| {
// Use `arrays` method to make list of lists
json.arrays(&mut jedi.iter(), |jedi, json| {
match jedi.side {
Side::Light => {
json.push(jedi.name.to_string());
json.push(format!("{:?}", jedi.side));
}
Side::Dark => json.skip(),
}
})
});
// [
// [
// "Qui-Gon Jinn",
// "Light"
// ],
// [
// "Obi-Wan Kenobi",
// "Light"
// ]
// ]
~~~
You can explicitly make `JsonWay` object return `null` if you want:
~~~rust
// ..
match jedi.side {
Side::Light => {
json.push(jedi.name.to_string());
json.push(format!("{:?}", jedi.side));
},
Side::Dark => json.null()
}
~~~
## Serializers
### Serializier
Provides convention and functionality to create custom JSON presenters for any struct.
```rust
use jsonway::{ObjectBuilder, Serializer};
struct Jedi {
name: String
}
struct JediSerializer<'a> {
jedi: &'a Jedi
}
impl<'a> Serializer for JediSerializer<'a> {
fn root(&self) -> Option<&str> { Some("jedi") }
fn build(&self, json: &mut ObjectBuilder) {
json.set("name", self.jedi.name.to_string());
}
}
let jedi = Jedi { name: "Saes Rrogon".to_string() };
let json = JediSerializer{jedi: &jedi}.serialize();
```
### ObjectSerializer
`ObjectSerializer` is a generic struct for single `object:T` serialization.
```rust
use jsonway::{ObjectBuilder, ObjectSerializer};
struct Jedi {
name: String
}
struct JediSerializer;
impl ObjectSerializer for JediSerializer {
fn root(&self) -> Option<&str> { Some("jedi") }
fn build(&self, jedi: &Jedi, json: &mut ObjectBuilder) {
json.set("name", jedi.name.to_string());
}
}
let jedi = Jedi { name: "Saes Rrogon".to_string() };
let json = JediSerializer.serialize(&jedi);
```
### ObjectScopeSerializer
`ObjectScopeSerializer` is a generic struct for `object:T` and `scope:S` serialization.
```rust
use jsonway::{ObjectBuilder, ObjectScopeSerializer};
struct User {
id: uint,
is_admin: bool
}
struct Jedi {
name: String,
secret: String
}
struct JediSerializer;
impl ObjectScopeSerializer for JediSerializer {
fn root(&self) -> Option<&str> { Some("jedi") }
fn build(&self, jedi: &Jedi, current_user: &User, json: &mut ObjectBuilder) {
json.set("name", jedi.name.to_string());
if current_user.is_admin {
json.set("secret", jedi.secret.to_string());
}
}
}
let jedi = Jedi {
name: "Palpatine".to_string(),
secret: "Dark side".to_string()
};
let current_user = User { id: 1, is_admin: true };
let json = JediSerializer.serialize(&jedi, ¤t_user);
```
## ListSerializer
Provides convention and functionality to create custom JSON presenters for the list of resources including `meta` information.
