View Source Euneus

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

Euneus is a rewrite of Thoas.

Like Thoas, both the parser and generator fully conform to RFC 8259 and ECMA 404.

Basic Usage

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(#{name => #{english => <<"Charmander">>, japanese => <<"ヒトカゲ"/utf8>>}, type => [fire], profile => #{height => 0.6, weight => 8}, ability => #{0 => <<"Blaze">>, 1 => undefined}}).
{ok, <<"{\"name\":{\"english\":\"Charmander\",\"japanese\":\"ヒトカゲ\"},\"profile\":{\"height\":0.6,\"weight\":8},\"type\":[\"fire\"],\"ability\":{\"0\":\"Blaze\",\"1\":null}}">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON).
{ok,#{<<"ability">> =>
          #{<<"0">> => <<"Blaze">>,<<"1">> => undefined},
      <<"name">> =>
          #{<<"english">> => <<"Charmander">>,
            <<"japanese">> =>
                <<227,131,146,227,131,136,227,130,171,227,130,178>>},
      <<"profile">> => #{<<"height">> => 0.6,<<"weight">> => 8},
      <<"type">> => [<<"fire">>]}}

3> euneus:decode(JSON, #{
    keys => fun
        (<<Char>> = Key, _Opts) when Char >= $0, Char =< $9 ->
            binary_to_integer(Key);
        (Key, _Opts) ->
            binary_to_existing_atom(Key)
    end
}).
{ok,#{name =>
          #{english => <<"Charmander">>,
            japanese =>
                <<227,131,146,227,131,136,227,130,171,227,130,178>>},
      profile => #{height => 0.6,weight => 8},
      type => [<<"fire">>],
      ability => #{0 => <<"Blaze">>,1 => undefined}}}

Data Mapping

[!TIP]

More types can be handled by using custom plugins. Please see the Plugins section for more info.

Why not more built-in types?

The goal of Euneus is to have built-in types that can be commonly encoded and decoded, but the range of types can be easily extended by using plugins. Please see the Plugins section for more info.

Note about proplists

Proplists are not handled by Euneus by default.

There are three options:

  1. Use the built-in, or create your own, proplist plugin;
  2. Convert proplists to maps before the encoding;
  3. Override the list_encoder option in the encoder to handle them, for example:
1> Options = #{
       list_encoder => fun
           ([{K, _} | _] = Proplist, Opts)
             when is_binary(K); is_atom(K); is_integer(K) ->
               Map = proplists:to_map(Proplist),
               euneus_encoder:encode_map(Map, Opts);
           (List, Opts) ->
               euneus_encoder:encode_list(List, Opts)
       end
   }.

2> Proplist = [{foo, bar}, {bar, [{0, ok}]}].

3> euneus:encode_to_binary(Proplist, Options).
{ok,<<"{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"bar\":{\"0\":\"ok\"}}">>}

The reason for that is because it's impossible to know when a list is a proplist and also because a proplist cannot be decoded. Please see the Why not more built-in types? section for more info about this decision.

Plugins

Euneus has a mechanism to easily plug in encoders and decoders. You can use the built-in plugins to handle common types or create your own in a module by implementing the euneus_plugin behavior.

If you have a built-in plugin suggestion, feel free to open a new issue to discuss it.

[!IMPORTANT] The plugins mechanism deprecated the datetime_encoder and the timestamp_encoder option in favor of the datetime and timestamp plugins.

Usage

Encode

euneus:encode(Term, #{plugins => [
    % list of built-in or custom plugins
]})

Decode

euneus:decode(Term, #{plugins => [
    % list of built-in or custom plugins
]})

Built-in Plugins

datetime

Encodes calendar:datetime() to ISO8601 as JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary({{1970,1,1},{0,0,0}}, #{plugins => [datetime]}).
{ok,<<"\"1970-01-01T00:00:00Z\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [datetime]}).
{ok,{{1970,1,1},{0,0,0}}}

inet

Encodes inet:ip_address() to IPV4 or IPV6 as JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary({127,0,0,1}, #{plugins => [inet]}).
{ok,<<"\"127.0.0.1\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [inet]}).
{ok,{127,0,0,1}}

pid

Encodes erlang:pid() to JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(list_to_pid("<0.92.0>"), #{plugins => [pid]}).
{ok,<<"\"<0.92.0>\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [pid]}).
{ok,<0.92.0>}

port

Encodes erlang:port() to JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(list_to_port("#Port<0.1>"), #{plugins => [port]}).
{ok,<<"\"#Port<0.1>\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [port]}).
{ok,#Port<0.1>}

proplist

Encodes [{binary() | atom() | integer(), term()}] to JSON object, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary([{foo, bar}], #{plugins => [proplist]}).
{ok,<<"{\"foo\":\"bar\"}">>}

reference

Encodes erlang:reference() to JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(make_ref(), #{plugins => [reference]}).
{ok,<<"\"#Ref<0.957048870.857473026.108035>\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [reference]}).
{ok,#Ref<0.957048870.857473026.108035>}

timestamp

Encodes erlang:timestamp/0 to ISO8601 as JSON string and decodes it back, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary({0,0,0}, #{plugins => [timestamp]}).
{ok,<<"\"1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z\"">>}

2> euneus:decode(JSON, #{plugins => [timestamp]}).
{ok,{0,0,0}}

drop_nulls

Remove keys from maps whose terms are members of the encode 'nulls' option, for example:

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(#{a => 1, b => undefined}, #{plugins => [drop_nulls]}).
{ok,<<"{\"a\":1}">>}

1> {ok, JSON} = euneus:encode_to_binary(#{a => 1, b => undefined, c => foo}, #{nulls => [undefined, foo], plugins => [drop_nulls]}).
{ok,<<"{\"a\":1}">>}

[!IMPORTANT]

The drop_nulls plugin also works for proplists.

Differences to Thoas

The main difference between Euneus to Thoas is that Euneus gives more control to encoding or decoding data. All encode functions can be overridden and extended and all decoded data can be overridden and transformed. Also, there is no plugin mechanism in Thoas.

Encode

Available encode options:

#{
    %% nulls defines what terms will be replaced with the null literal (default: ['undefined']).
    nulls => nonempty_list(),
    %% binary_encoder allow override the binary() encoding.
    binary_encoder => function((binary(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% atom_encoder allow override the atom() encoding.
    atom_encoder => function((atom(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% integer_encoder allow override the integer() encoding.
    integer_encoder => function((integer(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% float_encoder allow override the float() encoding.
    float_encoder => function((float(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% list_encoder allow override the list() encoding.
    list_encoder => function((list(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% map_encoder allow override the map() encoding.
    map_encoder => function((map(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% unhandled_encoder allow encode any custom term (default: raise unsupported_type error).
    unhandled_encoder => function((term(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    %% escaper allow override the binary escaping (default: json).
    escaper => json
             | html
             | javascript
             | unicode
             | function((binary(), euneus_encoder:options()) -> iolist()),
    error_handler => function(( error | exit | throw
                              , term()
                              , erlang:stacktrace() ) -> euneus_encoder:result()),
    %% plugins extends the encode types.
    plugins => datetime
             | inet
             | pid
             | port
             | proplist
             | reference
             | timestamp
             | module() % that implements the `euneus_plugin` behavior.
}

For example:

1> EncodeOpts = #{
       binary_encoder => fun
           (<<"foo">>, Opts) ->
               euneus_encoder:encode_binary(<<"bar">>, Opts);
           (Bin, Opts) ->
               euneus_encoder:encode_binary(Bin, Opts)
       end,
       unhandled_encoder => fun
           ({_, _, _, _} = Ip, Opts) ->
               case inet:ntoa(Ip) of
                   {error, einval} ->
                       throw(invalid_ip);
                   IpStr ->
                       IpBin = list_to_binary(IpStr),
                       euneus_encoder:encode_binary(IpBin, Opts)
               end;
           (Term, Opts) ->
               euneus_encoder:throw_unsupported_type_error(Term, Opts)
       end,
       error_handler => fun
           (throw, invalid_ip, _Stacktrace) ->
               {error, invalid_ip};
           (Class, Reason, Stacktrace) ->
               euneus_encoder:handle_error(Class, Reason, Stacktrace)
       end
   }.

2> Data = #{<<"foo">> => bar, ipv4 => {127,0,0,1}, none => undefined}.

3> euneus:encode_to_binary(Data, EncodeOpts).
{ok, <<"{\"bar\":\"bar\",\"ipv4\":\"127.0.0.1\",\"none\":null}">>}

4> euneus:encode_to_binary({1270,0,0,1}, EncodeOpts).
{error, invalid_ip}

Decode

Available decode options:

#{
    %% null_term is the null literal override (default: 'undefined').
    null_term => term(),
    %% arrays allow override any array/list().
    arrays => function((list(), euneus_decoder:options()) -> term()),
    %% objects allow override any object/map().
    objects => function((map(), euneus_decoder:options()) -> term()),
    %% keys allow override the keys from JSON objects.
    keys => copy
          | to_atom
          | to_existing_atom
          | to_integer
          | function((binary(), euneus_decoder:options()) -> term()),
    %% values allow override any other term, like array item or object value.
    values => copy
            | to_atom
            | to_existing_atom
            | to_integer
            | function((binary(), euneus_decoder:options()) -> term()),
    %% plugins extends the decode types.
    plugins => datetime
             | inet
             | pid
             | port
             | reference
             | timestamp
             | module() % that implements the `euneus_plugin` behavior.
}

For example:

1> DecodeOpts = #{
      null_term => nil,
      keys => fun
          (<<"bar">>, _Opts) ->
              foo;
          (Key, _Opts) ->
              binary_to_atom(Key)
      end,
      values => fun
          (<<"127.0.0.1">>, _Opts) ->
              {127, 0, 0, 1};
          (Value, _Opts) ->
              Value
      end
   }.

2> JSON = <<"{\"bar\":\"bar\",\"ipv4\":\"127.0.0.1\",\"none\":null}">>.

3> euneus:decode(JSON, DecodeOpts).
{ok,#{foo => <<"bar">>,
      ipv4 => {127,0,0,1},
      none => nil}}

Resuming

Euneus permits resuming the decoding when an invalid token is found. Any value can replace the invalid token by overriding the error_handler option, e.g.:

1> ErrorHandler = fun
      (throw, {{token, Token}, Rest, Opts, Input, Pos, Buffer}, _Stacktrace) ->
          Replacement = foo,
          euneus_decoder:resume(Token, Replacement, Rest, Opts, Input, Pos, Buffer);
      (Class, Reason, Stacktrace) ->
          euneus_decoder:handle_error(Class, Reason, Stacktrace)
   end.

2> Opts = #{error_handler => ErrorHandler}.

3> euneus:decode(<<"[1e999,1e999,{\"foo\": 1e999}]">>, Opts).
{ok,[foo,foo,#{<<"foo">> => foo}]}

[!NOTE]

By using euneus_decoder:resume/6 the replacement will be the null_term option.

Format

Minify

Remove extra spaces and line feeds from JSON, e.g.:

1> euneus:minify_to_binary(<<"{\n  \"foo\": \"bar\",\n  \"baz\": {\n    \"foo\": \"bar\",\n    \"0\": [\n      \"foo\",\n      0\n    ]\n  }\n}">>).
<<"{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"baz\":{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"0\":[\"foo\",0]}}">>

Prettify

Format JSON for printing, e.g.:

1> io:format("~s~n", [euneus:prettify(<<"{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"baz\":{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"0\":[\"foo\",0]}}">>)]).
{
  "foo": "bar",
  "baz": {
    "foo": "bar",
    "0": [
      "foo",
      0
    ]
  }
}

Custom

Use euneus:format/2 or euneus:format_parsed/2 for custom formatting, e.g.:

1> Opts = #{spaces => <<$\t>>, indent => <<$\t, $\t>>, crlf => <<$\n>>}.

2> io:format("~s~n", [euneus:format(<<"{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"baz\":{\"foo\":\"bar\",\"0\":[\"foo\",0]}}">>, Opts)]).
{
                "foo":  "bar",
                "baz":  {
                                "foo":  "bar",
                                "0":    [
                                                "foo",
                                                0
                                ]
                }
}

Why Euneus over Thoas?

Thoas is incredible, works performant and perfectly fine, but Euneus is more flexible, permitting more customizations, and is more performant than Thoas. See the benchmarks.

The motivation for Euneus is this PR.

Benchmarks

All the latest runs details can be found under the runs directory in the benchmark project.

Encode

Smart encoding

This benchmark uses the JSON smart module via the euneus:encode/1 function. Smart modules only receive the input as the argument, so no option is available to set. Smart modules are the fastest euneus modules.

All benchmark details are available here.

Encoding with empty map as option

This benchmark passes the input and options parsed as the euneus:encode_parsed/2 function arguments. There is no option set, just an empty map, so all the default options are used. This function it's a bit slower than the smart one, but all options are analyzed in the run.

Encoding with all built-in plugins

This benchmark passes all the encode built-in plugins to the plugins option:

euneus:parse_encode_opts(#{
  plugins => [
    datetime,
    inet,
    pid,
    port,
    proplist,
    reference,
    timestamp
  ]
}).

[!IMPORTANT]

The drop_nulls plugin was introduced in v1.2.0 and was not included yet in the built-in plugins benchmarks.

It's the slowest euneus encode run, but at the same time it is very efficient.

Decode

Smart decoding

This benchmark uses the decode smart module via the euneus:decode/1 function. Smart modules only receive the input as the argument, so no option is available to set. Smart modules are the fastest euneus modules.

Tests

There are Eunit tests in euneus_encoder and euneus_decoder and tests suites in a specific project under the euneus_test directory. Euneus has more than 330 tests.

Also, the parser is tested using JSONTestSuite and all tests passes:

JSON Test Suite

See the Euneus parser in JSONTestSuite.

[!NOTE]

All of the JSONTestSuite tests are embedded in Euneus tests.

Smart modules

Euneus has modules that permit customizations and others that use the default options. The modules without customizations are called smart. The smart versions are faster because they do not do any option checks.

If you are good to go with the default options, please use the smart versions:

Credits

Euneus is a rewrite of Thoas, so all credits go to Michał Muskała, Louis Pilfold, also both Jason and Thoas contributors. Thanks for the hard work!

Why the name Euneus?

Euneus is the twin brother of Thoas.
