|
|
An rfc8259-compliant streaming json parser
|
|
|
|
# Features
|
|
|
|
- SAX-style api
|
|
- No memory allocations during parsing
|
|
- O(1) memory usage
|
|
- Streaming api - no need to buffer the entire document in memory. Parsing is resumed when more data is available
|
|
- Strings are unescaped in place before they're presented. No unicode normalization is performed
|
|
- Robust to crashes with untrusted input
|
|
|
|
# Rfc8259 conformance notes
|
|
|
|
- There are no limits on number precision. Numbers are only validated syntactically and are presented as is
|
|
- Only utf-8 is accepted
|
|
- Invalid utf-8 is rejected
|
|
- Byte order markers are rejected
|
|
- Invalid escaped utf16 surrogate pairs are rejected
|
|
- Documents that are too deeply nested are rejected to control memory usage
|
|
- Duplicate keys are presented
|
|
|
|
# Caveats
|
|
|
|
- Users should be prepared to discard work done during SAX callbacks if the document is ultimately rejected
