+r"""
+A simple, fast, extensible JSON encoder and decoder
+
+JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) <http://json.org> is a subset of
+JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition) used as a lightweight data
+interchange format.
+
+simplejson exposes an API familiar to uses of the standard library
+marshal and pickle modules.
+
+Encoding basic Python object hierarchies::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> simplejson.dumps(['foo', {'bar': ('baz', None, 1.0, 2)}])
+ '["foo", {"bar": ["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]'
+ >>> print simplejson.dumps("\"foo\bar")
+ "\"foo\bar"
+ >>> print simplejson.dumps(u'\u1234')
+ "\u1234"
+ >>> print simplejson.dumps('\\')
+ "\\"
+ >>> print simplejson.dumps({"c": 0, "b": 0, "a": 0}, sort_keys=True)
+ {"a": 0, "b": 0, "c": 0}
+ >>> from StringIO import StringIO
+ >>> io = StringIO()
+ >>> simplejson.dump(['streaming API'], io)
+ >>> io.getvalue()
+ '["streaming API"]'
+
+Compact encoding::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> simplejson.dumps([1,2,3,{'4': 5, '6': 7}], separators=(',',':'))
+ '[1,2,3,{"4":5,"6":7}]'
+
+Pretty printing::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> print simplejson.dumps({'4': 5, '6': 7}, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
+ {
+ "4": 5,
+ "6": 7
+ }
+
+Decoding JSON::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> simplejson.loads('["foo", {"bar":["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]')
+ [u'foo', {u'bar': [u'baz', None, 1.0, 2]}]
+ >>> simplejson.loads('"\\"foo\\bar"')
+ u'"foo\x08ar'
+ >>> from StringIO import StringIO
+ >>> io = StringIO('["streaming API"]')
+ >>> simplejson.load(io)
+ [u'streaming API']
+
+Specializing JSON object decoding::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> def as_complex(dct):
+ ... if '__complex__' in dct:
+ ... return complex(dct['real'], dct['imag'])
+ ... return dct
+ ...
+ >>> simplejson.loads('{"__complex__": true, "real": 1, "imag": 2}',
+ ... object_hook=as_complex)
+ (1+2j)
+ >>> import decimal
+ >>> simplejson.loads('1.1', parse_float=decimal.Decimal)
+ decimal.Decimal(1.1)
+
+Extending JSONEncoder::
+
+ >>> import simplejson
+ >>> class ComplexEncoder(simplejson.JSONEncoder):
+ ... def default(self, obj):
+ ... if isinstance(obj, complex):
+ ... return [obj.real, obj.imag]
+ ... return simplejson.JSONEncoder.default(self, obj)
+ ...
+ >>> dumps(2 + 1j, cls=ComplexEncoder)
+ '[2.0, 1.0]'
+ >>> ComplexEncoder().encode(2 + 1j)
+ '[2.0, 1.0]'
+ >>> list(ComplexEncoder().iterencode(2 + 1j))
+ ['[', '2.0', ', ', '1.0', ']']
+
+
+Using simplejson from the shell to validate and
+pretty-print::
+
+ $ echo '{"json":"obj"}' | python -msimplejson
+ {
+ "json": "obj"
+ }
+ $ echo '{ 1.2:3.4}' | python -msimplejson
+ Expecting property name: line 1 column 2 (char 2)
+
+Note that the JSON produced by this module's default settings
+is a subset of YAML, so it may be used as a serializer for that as well.
