An incredibly flexible and performant JSON parser, generator and formatter in pure Erlang.

Euneus is built on the top of the new OTP json module.

Both encoder and decoder fully conform to RFC 8259 and ECMA 404 standards and are tested using JSONTestSuite.

Detailed examples and further explanation can be found at hexdocs.

Installation

Erlang

% rebar.config
{deps, [
    json_polyfill, % Required only for OTP < 27
    {euneus, "2.4.0"}
]}.

Elixir

# mix.exs
defp deps do
  [
    {:json_polyfill, "~> 0.1"}, # Required only for OTP < 27
    {:euneus, "~> 2.4"}
  ]
end

Or consider using Exneus:

# mix.exs
defp deps do
  [
    {:json_polyfill, "~> 0.1"}, # Required only for OTP < 27
    {:exneus, "~> 0.1"}
  ]
end

Exneus is a wrapper of Euneus for Elixir.

Basic usage

1> euneus:encode(#{age => 68, name => <<"Joe Armstrong">>, nationality => <<"British">>}).
<<"{\"name\":\"Joe Armstrong\",\"age\":68,\"nationality\":\"British\"}">>
2> euneus:decode(v(1)).
#{<<"age">> => 68,<<"name">> => <<"Joe Armstrong">>,<<"nationality">> => <<"British">>}

Encode

The functions euneus:encode/1 euneus:encode/2 encodes an Erlang term into a binary JSON. The second argument of euneus:encode/2 are options.

Please see the euneus_encoder documentation for more examples and detailed explanation.

The data mapping and error reasons can be found in the OTP json encode function documentation.

Decode

The functions euneus:decode/1 and euneus:decode/2 decodes a binary JSON into an Erlang term. The second argument of euneus:decode/2 are options.

Please see the euneus_decoder documentation for more examples and detailed explanation.

The data mapping and error reasons can be found in the OTP json decode function documentation.

Stream

Three functions provide JSON decode streaming:

Please see the euneus_decoder documentation for more examples and detailed explanation.

Format

Two functions provide JSON formatting:

Please see the euneus_formatter documentation for more examples and detailed explanation.

Benchmark

The benchmarks are implemented very simply, but they are a good start foroptimizing Euneus since no optimizations have been made. You will find the benchmark commands in euneus_benchmarker, and data and tests under the test folder.

[!IMPORTANT] For the first benchmark run, bootstrapping erlperf is required:

$ rebar3 as benchmark shell

1> euneus_benchmarker:bootstrap().

===> Compiling erlperf
===> Building escript for erlperf...
ok
