Requirements: Latest version of AutoHotkey (v1.1 or v2.0-a )

Version: v2.1.1 (updated 01/30/2016)

License: WTFPL

Works on both AutoHotkey v1.1 and v2.0a

Use #Include JSON.ahk or copy into a function library folder and use #Include <JSON>.

Parses a JSON string into an AHK value

value := JSON.Load( text [, reviver ] )

An AutoHotkey value (object, string, number)

• text [in] - JSON formatted string
• reviver [in, opt] - function object, prescribes how the value originally produced by parsing is transformed, before being returned. Similar to JavaScript's JSON.parse() reviver parameter.

Converts an AHK value into a JSON string

str := JSON.Dump( value, [, replacer, space ] )

A JSON formatted string

• value [in] - AutoHotkey value (object, string, number)
• replacer [in, opt] - function object, alters the behavior of the stringification process. Similar to JavaScript's JSON.stringify() replacer parameter.
• space [in, opt] -if space is a non-negative integer or string, then JSON array elements and object members will be pretty-printed with that indent level. Blank( "" ) (the default) or 0 selects the most compact representation. Using a positive integer space indents that many spaces per level, this number is capped at 10 if it's larger than that. If space is a string (such as "`t"), the string (or the first 10 characters of the string, if it's longer than that) is used to indent each level.

Similar to the JSON class above just implemented as a function. Unlike JSON (class) above, this implementation provides reading from and writing to file(Removed Jxon_Read and Jxon_Write). Works on both AutoHotkey v1.1 and v2.0a

Use #Include Jxon.ahk or #Include <Jxon>. Must be copied into a function library folder for the latter.

Deserialize src (a JSON formatted string) to an AutoHotkey object

obj := Jxon_Load( ByRef src [ , object_base := "", array_base := "" ] )

• src [in, ByRef] - JSON formatted string or path to the file containing JSON formatted string.
• object_base [in, opt] - an object to use as prototype for objects( {} ) created during parsing.
• array_base [in, opt] - an object to use as prototype for arrays( [] ) created during parsing.

Serialize obj to a JSON formatted string

str := Jxon_Dump( obj [ , indent := "" ] )

A JSON formatted string.

• obj [in] - this argument has the same meaning as in JSON.Dump()
• indent [in, opt] - this argument has the same meaning as in JSON.Dump()
