minimal-json [UNMAINTAINED]

I'm glad to see that minimal-json is still used, however, I can't maintain this project anymore. If anyone actively maintains a fork that follows the ideas of minimal-json, I'm happy to link to this repository here. Thank you. A fast and minimal JSON parser and writer for Java. It's not an object mapper, but a bare-bones library that aims at being

• minimal: no dependencies, single package with just a few classes, small download size ( {"name": "Alice", "points": 23}

JsonArray user = Json.array().add("Bob").add(42); // -> ["Bob", 42]

You can also create JSON arrays conveniently from Java arrays such as `String[]`, `int[]`, `boolean[]`, etc.:

```java
String[] javaNames = {"Alice", "Bob"};
JsonArray jsonNames = Json.array(names);

Modify JSON arrays and objects

You can replace or remove array elements based on their index. The index must be valid.

jsonArray.set(1, 24);
jsonArray.remove(1);

Likewise, members of JSON objects can be modified by their name. If the name does not exist, set will append a new member.

jsonObject.set("quantity", 24);
jsonObject.remove("quantity");

JsonObject also provides a merge method that copies all members from a given JSON object.

jsonObject.merge(otherObject);

Output JSON

The toString method of a JsonValue returns valid JSON strings. You can also write to a java.io.Writer using writeTo:

String json = jsonValue.toString();
jsonValue.writeTo(writer);

Both methods accept an additonal parameter to enable formatted output:

String json = jsonValue.toString(WriterConfig.PRETTY_PRINT);
jsonValue.writeTo(writer, WriterConfig.PRETTY_PRINT);
