Important
Changes that are equivalent to the patch applied in this fork have been accepted for serde, and have been released as serde / serde_derive v1.0.185. Since this eliminates the need for a fork, this project will be archived and will not receive any further changes.
Serde 
Serde is a framework for serializing and deserializing Rust data structures efficiently and generically.
Important
This is a fork of serde-rs/serde which
addresses serde#2538 by
reverting the addition of the pre-compiled binary blob. It should function as
a drop-in replacement for serde / serde_derive >= 1.0.172.
The changes are based on two patches that have been applied
to the Fedora Linux packages for all versions of serde_derive >= 1.0.172.
Note that some crates have already pinned serde / serde_derive to <= 1.0.171,
in which case using this git repository as an override will not work (due to
the higher version numbers).
I will attempt to merge new releases of serde / serde_derive here in a timely fashion. If there's enough interest in this fork, I will publish the deblobbed code on crates.io under a different name.

[dependencies]
# The core APIs, including the Serialize and Deserialize traits. Always
# required when using Serde. The "derive" feature is only required when
# using #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)] to make Serde work with structs
# and enums defined in your crate.
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
# Each data format lives in its own crate; the sample code below uses JSON
# but you may be using a different one.
serde_json = "1.0"use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize}; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)] struct Point { x: i32, y: i32, } fn main() { let point = Point { x: 1, y: 2 }; // Convert the Point to a JSON string. let serialized = serde_json::to_string(&point).unwrap(); // Prints serialized = {"x":1,"y":2} println!("serialized = {}", serialized); // Convert the JSON string back to a Point. let deserialized: Point = serde_json::from_str(&serialized).unwrap(); // Prints deserialized = Point { x: 1, y: 2 } println!("deserialized = {:?}", deserialized); }
Getting help
Serde is one of the most widely used Rust libraries so any place that Rustaceans congregate will be able to help you out. For chat, consider trying the #rust-questions or #rust-beginners channels of the unofficial community Discord (invite: https://discord.gg/rust-lang-community), the #rust-usage or #beginners channels of the official Rust Project Discord (invite: https://discord.gg/rust-lang), or the #general stream in Zulip. For asynchronous, consider the [rust] tag on StackOverflow, the /r/rust subreddit which has a pinned weekly easy questions post, or the Rust Discourse forum. It's acceptable to file a support issue in this repo but they tend not to get as many eyes as any of the above and may get closed without a response after some time.
