JS: Possible to de-searlize object from JSON?

[MikeSilvis]

Part of the Proto3 spec is to be able top serialize protomodels to and from JSON. I see a way to serialize a proto object to JSON, but not parse it back. Is this possible? And if so, how should i go about it.

[TeBoring]

Currently, we don't support that.

@TeBoring it's part of the Proto3 Spec though. Is it on the roadmap?

This should be on our roadmap, but it's not prioritized right now.

Oh my good google. Issue opened in 2018 year still no progress. Without this feature javascript protobuf is useless. Calling setters just to convert from one format to another is very annoying

It will be super handy to create messages like f.e.

SomeMeesage.fromJson({...})

I think i will create helper function for this in one day
