yajl-py is a Pure Python wrapper (implemented using ctypes) to the excellent Yajl (Yet Another JSON Library) C library.
yajl and yajl-py, allow for fast stream parsing of JSON files, which enables the parsing of large files, that would not fit in memory.
- python 2.6 (or compatible)
- yajl (from http://lloyd.github.com/yajl/)
To run the tests you also require:
- make (to run make test)
- nose (debian package == python-nose)
From within the current directory run:
python setup.py install
- OR Alternatively -
easy_install .
The examples directory contains full featured JSON Parsers built using yajl and yajl-py. See examples/README.rst for more info.
