vertical-jsonwriter-core 1.0.1

vertical-jsonwriter-core

Provides an abstraction over System.Text.Json.Utf8JsonReader that handles the structural state of JSON document parsing.

Overview

Simply put, the JsonStructureReader class accepts a Utf8JsonReader structure, and forwards node information to a visitor implementation. The node information contains the current depth, parent type, applicable values, property names, etc.

Quick Start

Add a package reference to your .csproj file:

$ dotnet add package vertical-jsonwriter-core 

Usage

Define an implementation of IJsonStructureVisitor:

public class MyJsonStructureVisitor : IJsonStructureVisitor
{
    // Implement methods...

    void VisitObjectStart(in JsonVisitingState state) { /* Implementation */ }    
    void VisitObjectEnd(in JsonVisitingState state, int childCount) { /* Implementation */ }    
    void VisitArrayStart(in JsonVisitingState state) { /* Implementation */ }    
    void VisitArrayEnd(in JsonVisitingState state, int childCount) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitPropertyName(in JsonVisitingState state, string name) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitStringValue(in JsonVisitingState state, string value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitInt32Value(in JsonVisitingState state, int value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitInt64Value(in JsonVisitingState state, long value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitDoubleValue(in JsonVisitingState state, double value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitDecimalValue(in JsonVisitingState state, decimal value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitBooleanValue(in JsonVisitingState state, bool value) { /* Implementation */ }
    void VisitNull(in JsonVisitingState state) { /* Implementation */ }    
}

The JsonVisitingState structure contains information regarding the location of the reader that may be of interest:

The JsonPlacement enum describes the placement of the current node, relative to its parent:
