LassiJSON - Light Alternative JSON Library for Java

LassiJSON aims to provide an alternative library to parse and create JSON formatted data, with direct and unambigious mapping to JSON input or output. Please see the FAQ before using, it takes just a moment to skim over it, please.

Project goals

-At least as fast or faster than JSON.org, At least as fast or faster as GSON JSONParser, focused on bigger input and outputs

-Small (an under 20 kbyte addition)

-Single .java file with no extra dependencies

-Usable in most Java environments

-Unambigious serialization to JSON and back into LaJSON objects. (input for numbers should match output, even for cases where it will not be so for json.org.

-No additional dependencies to other libraries

-Obfuscation friendly (no need to configure proguard etc)

-Practicality

Usage

see manual.

Reached goals

With larger inputs, faster than either json or gson.

Installation / Requirements of the runtime system

Add the .jar library into your project. Alternatively you can simply just add the .java into your project(it's a single file, which is part of the project goals, 1 java file - WITH NO EXTRA DEPENDENCIES)

So just drop https://github.com/lassikin/LassiJSON/blob/master/sources/LaJSONLibrary/src/lassik/LaJSON/LaJSON.java this file into your project and you're good to go.

Maven and Gradle packages coming in the future
