Class Json

  • public final class Json
extends java.lang.Object
    This class serves as the entry point to the minimal-json API.

    To parse a given JSON input, use the parse() methods like in this example: 

     JsonObject object = Json.parse(string).asObject();

    To create a JSON data structure to be serialized, use the methods value(), array(), and object(). For example, the following snippet will produce the JSON string {"foo": 23, "bar": true}: 

     String string = Json.object().add("foo", 23).add("bar", true).toString();

    To create a JSON array from a given Java array, you can use one of the array() methods with varargs parameters: 

     String[] names = ...
 JsonArray array = Json.array(names);

        Throws:
