# PhpSerializerNET

This is a .NET library for working with the [PHP serialization format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_serialization_format).

Usage is rather simple:

[Serializing](https://stringepsilon.github.io/PhpSerializerNET/Usage/Serializing)

```c#

using PhpSerializerNET;

string serializedData = PhpSerialization.Serialize(myObject);

```

and [Deserializing](https://stringepsilon.github.io/PhpSerializerNET/Usage/Deserializing)

```c#

using PhpSerializerNET;

object myObject = PhpSerialization.Deserialize(serializedData);

```

[Detailed documentation can be found here](https://stringepsilon.github.io/PhpSerializerNET).

## Changelog

[Detailed list of changes for each version since initial release here.](https://github.com/StringEpsilon/PhpSerializerNET/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).

## Why?

I'm working with some legacy project that uses the format and the only other implementation of a serializer/deserializer I found had no license attached and I needed something GPL compatible. So wrote this one from scratch.
