It is pure Python code -with no dependencies, but includes an optional C extension -for a serious speed boost. - -The latest documentation for simplejson can be read online here: -https://simplejson.readthedocs.io/ - -simplejson is the externally maintained development version of the -json library included with Python (since 2.6). This version is tested -with the latest Python 3.8 and maintains backwards compatibility -with Python 3.3+ and the legacy Python 2.5 - Python 2.7 releases. - -The encoder can be specialized to provide serialization in any kind of -situation, without any special support by the objects to be serialized -(somewhat like pickle). This is best done with the ``default`` kwarg -to dumps. - -The decoder can handle incoming JSON strings of any specified encoding -(UTF-8 by default). It can also be specialized to post-process JSON -objects with the ``object_hook`` or ``object_pairs_hook`` kwargs. This -is particularly useful for implementing protocols such as JSON-RPC -that have a richer type system than JSON itself. - -For those of you that have legacy systems to maintain, there is a -very old fork of simplejson in the `python2.2`_ branch that supports -Python 2.2. This is based on a very old version of simplejson, -is not maintained, and should only be used as a last resort. - -.. _python2.2: https://github.com/simplejson/simplejson/tree/python2.2 |
