A pure-Python, no-dependency implementation of [RFC 8785], a.k.a. JSON Canonicalization Scheme or JCS.

This implementation should be behaviorally comparable to

[Andrew Rundgren's reference implementation], with the following added constraints:

1. This implementation does not transparently convert non-`str` dictionary keys into

   strings. Users must explicitly perform this conversion.

1. No support for indentation, pretty-printing, etc. is provided. The output is always

   minimally encoded.

2. All APIs produce UTF-8-encoded `bytes` objects or `bytes` I/O.

## Installation

```bash

python -m pip install rfc8785

```

## Usage

See the full API documentation [here].

```python

import rfc8785

foo = {

    "key": "value",

    "another-key": 2,

    "a-third": [1, 2, 3, [4], (5, 6, "this works too")],

    "more": [None, True, False],

}

rfc8785.dumps(foo)

```

yields:

```python

b'{"a-third":[1,2,3,[4],[5,6,"this works too"]],"another-key":2,"key":"value","more":[null,true,false]}'

```

For direct serialization to an I/O sink, use `rfc8785.dump` instead:

```python

import rfc8785

with open("/some/file", mode="wb") as io:

    rfc8785.dump([1, 2, 3, 4], io)

```

All APIs raise `rfc8785.CanonicalizationError` or a subclass on serialization failures.
