hw-json

v0.0-branch

Conduits for tokenizing streams.

hw-json is a succinct JSON parsing library. It uses succinct data-structures to allow traversal of large JSON strings with minimal memory overhead.

It is currently considered experimental.

For an example, see app/Main.hs

Prerequisites

  • Install haskell-stack.
  • Install hlint (eg. stack install hlint)

Building

Run the following in the shell:

git clone [email protected]:haskell-works/hw-json.git
cd hw-json
stack setup
stack build
stack test
stack ghci --ghc-options -XOverloadedStrings \
  --main-is hw-json:exe:hw-json-example
