JSON Parser

This is a simple, light weight JSON parser built on top of jsmn.

Files

• src/json_parser.c: Source file which has all the logic for implementing the APIs built on top of JSMN
• include/json_parser.h: Header file that exposes all APIs
• test/main.c: A test file which demonstrates parsing of a pre-defined JSON
• Makefile: For generating the test executable

Usage

Clone the repository using: git clone --recursive https://github.com/shahpiyushv/json_parser.git

Note: The --recursive argument is important because json_parser has jsmn as a git submodule, which will get cloned with the --recursive argument. If you forget it, just execute git submodule update --init --recursive from json_parser/.

Include the src/json_parser.c and include/json_parser.h files in your project's build system and that should be enough. json_parser requires only standard library functions and jsmn for compilation.

Testing

• To compile the test executable, just execute make.
• This will create json_parser binary.
• Running the binary should print the parsed information
