Module `Jsonxt.Utilities`

json tree conversion functions

Support various converstions of a json tree

To strict and basic types
To strings, intended mostly for debugging

Tree type conversion

val to_basic : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained -> Basic.json: to_basic json converts json into the Basic.json type transforming variants that do not comply to that type. All json types can be converted

val to_strict : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained -> Strict.json: to_basic json converts json into the Strict.json type transforming variants that do not comply to that type. In particular ints are converted to floats. All json types can be converted

Tree conversion to strings

val json_to_string_repr : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained -> string

json_to_string_repr json converts json into a string representation of the tree. This is not JSON but a textual represenation of the json tree. eg

`Assoc [
  "Boo1": `List []
]

val json_to_string : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained -> string: json_to_string json converts the json tree to standard JSON in compact format. The function does not apply any type constraints to the json tree

val json_stream_to_string_repr : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained_stream -> string: json_to_string_repr json converts json into a string representation of the json_stream element. This is not JSON but a textual represenation of the json_stream_type. eg `Ae

val equal : 'a Jsonxt__.Json_internal.constrained -> 'a -> bool: equal json1 json2 recursively compares the two trees returning true if they are equal. Object key/value pairs do not need to be in the same order. Duplicate keys are equal if and only if the key/value pairs are in the same order in each tree.
