Jack is header-only library for parsing JSON data in C.
#define JACK_IMPLEMENTATION
#include "include/jack.h"
int main() {
char *str = "{\"message\":\"Hello, world!\"}";
Json json = Json_Parse(str);
Json_Print(&json, 4);
return 0;
}- output
{
"message": "Hello, world!"
}/*
Will create a new JSON object
*/
Json Json_New();
/*
Will parse a raw C string to JSON object
similar to JavaScript's JSON.parse()
*/
Json Json_Parse(char *str);
/*
Will retrive a key-value pair from JSON object "Json *j"
with key equal to "char *key", returns NULL if not found.
*/
JsonKeyValuePair *Json_Get(Json *j, char *key);
/*
Will append a new key-value pair to the JSON object
*/
void Json_Append(Json *j, JsonKeyValuePair pair);
/*
Will convert a JSON object back to C raw string
similar to JavaScript's JSON.stringfy()
*/
char *Json_Stringfy(Json obj, unsigned int depth);
/*
Will print the JSON object to the stdout
*/
void Json_Print(Json *j, int depth);- Note: more details about each API function may be found in doc strings

- Download the
include/jack.hheader file
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/edilson258/jack/master/include/jack.h- Include in your program
#define JACK_IMPLEMENTATION
#include "jack.h"
int main() {
// your trash code goes here
}- Note: The examples above expects the
jack.hheader file to be in the same directory as your program.
