Hello everyone,
A new module has been added to Opensips that provides means for serialization and deserialization of data structures using JSON format.
Benefits of the JSON module:
- JSON is a widespread format so it can be used to share structured information with other applications
- it can be used to place complex data types into storage as strings (ex: any information can be placed into a database while requiring only a column of type string )
- it can be used as a general data structure from the script ( array, hashtable ) as it has all the methods specific to these structures ( putting , geting and deleting information) while also allowing the use of script
variables.
Requirements:
- the json module depends on the json-c library that can be found at: http://oss.metaparadigm.com/json-c/
How to use it:
- the new module introduces a new variable that provides methods for all of this.
Example:
$json(obj1) := "{}"; # initialize an empty JSON object
$json(obj1/key) = "value"; #replace or insert the (key,value)
#pair into the json object;
xlog("$json(obj1)"); # print the serialized version of the object
For more information please read the docs found at: http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/json.html#id228250
Hope you find this useful and please report any bugs you may find.
Andrei.
