-# JSON implementation for Ruby
-
-[![Travis Widget](http://travis-ci.org/flori/json.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/flori/json)
-
-## Description
-
-This is a implementation of the JSON specification according to RFC 7159
-http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc7159.txt . Starting from version 1.0.0 on there
-will be two variants available:
-
-* A pure ruby variant, that relies on the iconv and the stringscan
-  extensions, which are both part of the ruby standard library.
-* The quite a bit faster native extension variant, which is in parts
-  implemented in C or Java and comes with its own unicode conversion
-  functions and a parser generated by the ragel state machine compiler
-  http://www.complang.org/ragel/ .
-
-Both variants of the JSON generator generate UTF-8 character sequences by
-default. If an :ascii\_only option with a true value is given, they escape all
-non-ASCII and control characters with \uXXXX escape sequences, and support
-UTF-16 surrogate pairs in order to be able to generate the whole range of
-unicode code points.
-
-All strings, that are to be encoded as JSON strings, should be UTF-8 byte
-sequences on the Ruby side. To encode raw binary strings, that aren't UTF-8
-encoded, please use the to\_json\_raw\_object method of String (which produces
-an object, that contains a byte array) and decode the result on the receiving
-endpoint.
-
-## Installation
-
-It's recommended to use the extension variant of JSON, because it's faster than
-the pure ruby variant. If you cannot build it on your system, you can settle
-for the latter.
-
-Just type into the command line as root:
-
-```
-# rake install
-```
-
-The above command will build the extensions and install them on your system.
-
-```
-# rake install_pure
-```
-
-or
-
-```
-# ruby install.rb
-```
-
-will just install the pure ruby implementation of JSON.
-
-If you use Rubygems you can type
-
-```
-# gem install json
-```
-
-instead, to install the newest JSON version.
-
-There is also a pure ruby json only variant of the gem, that can be installed
-with:
-
-```
-# gem install json_pure
-```
-
-## Compiling the extensions yourself
-
-If you want to create the `parser.c` file from its `parser.rl` file or draw nice
-graphviz images of the state machines, you need ragel from:
-http://www.complang.org/ragel/
-
-## Usage
-
-To use JSON you can
-
-```ruby
-require 'json'
-```
-
-to load the installed variant (either the extension `'json'` or the pure
-variant `'json_pure'`). If you have installed the extension variant, you can
-pick either the extension variant or the pure variant by typing
-
-```ruby
-require 'json/ext'
-```
-
-or
-
-```ruby
-require 'json/pure'
-```
-
-Now you can parse a JSON document into a ruby data structure by calling
-
-```ruby
-JSON.parse(document)
-```
-
-If you want to generate a JSON document from a ruby data structure call
-```ruby
-JSON.generate(data)
-```
-
-You can also use the `pretty_generate` method (which formats the output more
-verbosely and nicely) or `fast_generate` (which doesn't do any of the security
-checks generate performs, e. g. nesting deepness checks).
-
-There are also the JSON and JSON[] methods which use parse on a String or
-generate a JSON document from an array or hash:
-
-```ruby
-document = JSON 'test'  => 23 # => "{\"test\":23}"
-document = JSON['test' => 23] # => "{\"test\":23}"
-```
-
-and
-
-```ruby
-data = JSON '{"test":23}'  # => {"test"=>23}
-data = JSON['{"test":23}'] # => {"test"=>23}
-```
-
-You can choose to load a set of common additions to ruby core's objects if
-you
-
-```ruby
-require 'json/add/core'
-```
-
-After requiring this you can, e. g., serialise/deserialise Ruby ranges:
-
-```ruby
-JSON JSON(1..10) # => 1..10
-```
-
-To find out how to add JSON support to other or your own classes, read the
-section "More Examples" below.
-
-To get the best compatibility to rails' JSON implementation, you can
-
-```ruby
-require 'json/add/rails'
-```
-
-Both of the additions attempt to require `'json'` (like above) first, if it has
-not been required yet.
-
-## Serializing exceptions
-
-The JSON module doesn't extend `Exception` by default. If you convert an `Exception`
-object to JSON, it will by default only include the exception message.
-
-To include the full details, you must either load the `json/add/core` mentioned
-above, or specifically load the exception addition:
-
-```ruby
-require 'json/add/exception'
-```
-
-## More Examples
-
-To create a JSON document from a ruby data structure, you can call
-`JSON.generate` like that:
-
-```ruby
-json = JSON.generate [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10]
-# => "[1,2,{\"a\":3.141},false,true,null,\"4..10\"]"
-```
-
-To get back a ruby data structure from a JSON document, you have to call
-JSON.parse on it:
-
-```ruby
-JSON.parse json
-# => [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, "4..10"]
-```
-
-Note, that the range from the original data structure is a simple
-string now. The reason for this is, that JSON doesn't support ranges
-or arbitrary classes. In this case the json library falls back to call
-`Object#to_json`, which is the same as `#to_s.to_json`.
-
-It's possible to add JSON support serialization to arbitrary classes by
-simply implementing a more specialized version of the `#to_json method`, that
-should return a JSON object (a hash converted to JSON with `#to_json`) like
-this (don't forget the `*a` for all the arguments):
-
-```ruby
-class Range
-  def to_json(*a)
-    {
-      'json_class'   => self.class.name, # = 'Range'
-      'data'         => [ first, last, exclude_end? ]
-    }.to_json(*a)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-The hash key `json_class` is the class, that will be asked to deserialise the
-JSON representation later. In this case it's `Range`, but any namespace of
-the form `A::B` or `::A::B` will do. All other keys are arbitrary and can be
-used to store the necessary data to configure the object to be deserialised.
-
-If the key `json_class` is found in a JSON object, the JSON parser checks
-if the given class responds to the `json_create` class method. If so, it is
-called with the JSON object converted to a Ruby hash. So a range can
-be deserialised by implementing `Range.json_create` like this:
-
-```ruby
-class Range
-  def self.json_create(o)
-    new(*o['data'])
-  end
-end
-```
-
-Now it possible to serialise/deserialise ranges as well:
-
-```ruby
-json = JSON.generate [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10]
-# => "[1,2,{\"a\":3.141},false,true,null,{\"json_class\":\"Range\",\"data\":[4,10,false]}]"
-JSON.parse json
-# => [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10]
-json = JSON.generate [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10]
-# => "[1,2,{\"a\":3.141},false,true,null,{\"json_class\":\"Range\",\"data\":[4,10,false]}]"
-JSON.parse json, :create_additions => true
-# => [1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10]
-```
-
-`JSON.generate` always creates the shortest possible string representation of a
-ruby data structure in one line. This is good for data storage or network
-protocols, but not so good for humans to read. Fortunately there's also
-`JSON.pretty_generate` (or `JSON.pretty_generate`) that creates a more readable
-output:
-
-```ruby
- puts JSON.pretty_generate([1, 2, {"a"=>3.141}, false, true, nil, 4..10])
- [
-   1,
-   2,
-   {
-     "a": 3.141
-   },
-   false,
-   true,
-   null,
-   {
-     "json_class": "Range",
-     "data": [
-       4,
-       10,
-       false
-     ]
-   }
- ]
-```
-
-There are also the methods `Kernel#j` for generate, and `Kernel#jj` for
-`pretty_generate` output to the console, that work analogous to Core Ruby's `p` and
-the `pp` library's `pp` methods.
-
-The script `tools/server.rb` contains a small example if you want to test, how
-receiving a JSON object from a webrick server in your browser with the
-javasript prototype library http://www.prototypejs.org works.
-
-## Speed Comparisons
-
-I have created some benchmark results (see the benchmarks/data-p4-3Ghz
-subdir of the package) for the JSON-parser to estimate the speed up in the C
-extension:
-
-```
- Comparing times (call_time_mean):
-  1 ParserBenchmarkExt#parser   900 repeats:
-        553.922304770 (  real) ->   21.500x
-          0.001805307
-  2 ParserBenchmarkYAML#parser  1000 repeats:
-        224.513358139 (  real) ->    8.714x
-          0.004454078
-  3 ParserBenchmarkPure#parser  1000 repeats:
-         26.755020642 (  real) ->    1.038x
-          0.037376163
-  4 ParserBenchmarkRails#parser 1000 repeats:
-         25.763381731 (  real) ->    1.000x
-          0.038814780
-            calls/sec (  time) ->    speed  covers
-            secs/call
-```
-
-In the table above 1 is `JSON::Ext::Parser`, 2 is `YAML.load` with YAML
-compatbile JSON document, 3 is is `JSON::Pure::Parser`, and 4 is
-`ActiveSupport::JSON.decode`. The ActiveSupport JSON-decoder converts the
-input first to YAML and then uses the YAML-parser, the conversion seems to
-slow it down so much that it is only as fast as the `JSON::Pure::Parser`!
-
-If you look at the benchmark data you can see that this is mostly caused by
-the frequent high outliers - the median of the Rails-parser runs is still
-overall smaller than the median of the `JSON::Pure::Parser` runs:
-
-```
- Comparing times (call_time_median):
-  1 ParserBenchmarkExt#parser   900 repeats:
-        800.592479481 (  real) ->   26.936x
-          0.001249075
-  2 ParserBenchmarkYAML#parser  1000 repeats:
-        271.002390644 (  real) ->    9.118x
-          0.003690004
-  3 ParserBenchmarkRails#parser 1000 repeats:
-         30.227910865 (  real) ->    1.017x
-          0.033082008
-  4 ParserBenchmarkPure#parser  1000 repeats:
-         29.722384421 (  real) ->    1.000x
-          0.033644676
-            calls/sec (  time) ->    speed  covers
-            secs/call
-```
-
-I have benchmarked the `JSON-Generator` as well. This generated a few more
-values, because there are different modes that also influence the achieved
-speed:
-
-```
- Comparing times (call_time_mean):
-  1 GeneratorBenchmarkExt#generator_fast    1000 repeats:
-        547.354332608 (  real) ->   15.090x
-          0.001826970
-  2 GeneratorBenchmarkExt#generator_safe    1000 repeats:
-        443.968212317 (  real) ->   12.240x
-          0.002252414
-  3 GeneratorBenchmarkExt#generator_pretty  900 repeats:
-        375.104545883 (  real) ->   10.341x
-          0.002665923
-  4 GeneratorBenchmarkPure#generator_fast   1000 repeats:
-         49.978706968 (  real) ->    1.378x
-          0.020008521
-  5 GeneratorBenchmarkRails#generator       1000 repeats:
-         38.531868759 (  real) ->    1.062x
-          0.025952543
-  6 GeneratorBenchmarkPure#generator_safe   1000 repeats:
-         36.927649925 (  real) ->    1.018x 7 (>=3859)
-          0.027079979
-  7 GeneratorBenchmarkPure#generator_pretty 1000 repeats:
-         36.272134441 (  real) ->    1.000x 6 (>=3859)
-          0.027569373
-            calls/sec (  time) ->    speed  covers
-            secs/call
-```
-
-In the table above 1-3 are `JSON::Ext::Generator` methods. 4, 6, and 7 are
-`JSON::Pure::Generator` methods and 5 is the Rails JSON generator. It is now a
-bit faster than the `generator_safe` and `generator_pretty` methods of the pure
-variant but slower than the others.
-
-To achieve the fastest JSON document output, you can use the `fast_generate`
-method. Beware, that this will disable the checking for circular Ruby data
-structures, which may cause JSON to go into an infinite loop.
-
-Here are the median comparisons for completeness' sake:
