Description
Yojson benchmarks require Core_bench
which is not a dependency of Yojson,
because it is not part of the regular installation/testing flow. This is solely
meant for developers that are worried about performance changes in Yojson.

Yojson: JSON library for OCaml
This library parses JSON data into a nested OCaml tree data structure.
Library documentation
Currently at https://ocaml-community.github.io/yojson/
Examples
A simple example on how to parse JSON from a string literal.
let json_string = {|
{"number" : 42,
"string" : "yes",
"list": ["for", "sure", 42]}|}
(* val json_string : string *)
let json = Yojson.Safe.from_string json_string
(* val json : Yojson.Safe.t *)
Format.printf "Parsed to %a" Yojson.Safe.pp json
Related tooling
Yojson
is a pretty common choice for parsing JSON in OCaml, as such it is the base for a number of tools and libraries that are built on top of it.

and custom OCaml typesppx_yojson_conv
, an alternative toppx_deriving_yojson
from Jane Street with different design decisionsatd
, generates mapping code from.atd
specification files and can be used in multiple languagesjsonm
is an alternate JSON parser that parses JSON into a stream of items, so the complete data structure does not have to be in memory.
