Pre-process Hooks

[meson10]

It would be great, if there was a way to "override" or some "pre_process" hook to execute, before default is fired. Currently there is no way this can be acheieved. and pre processing the data before feeding it to simple json, makes it a 2 x Loop.

Basically, Its a collection of objects which need to Inflated using one dynamic variable. The collection is sort of cached, and is kin of large in number.

In the comment update you have mentioned, it will be too overhead to implement.

Is there any other workaround you suggest [ i might have missed in the documentation ]?
I really wish to avoid that 1 extra iteration.

Can you explain your use case better? It's not very clear what you want this for, there may be better ways to do this already.

in my case, I'm looking for a way to avoid escaping some specific string values when encoding to JSON.
The reason is because I need to pass function reference (or even the whole function), so it might be not string-escaped.

see this example:
myDict = {
"name": "John",
"age": 21,
"hello": "js:function(){ alert('Hi'); }",
}

what I'd like to see as an output is a JSON object with "hello": function(){ alert('Hi'); }
instead of escaped one.

@migajek that functionality won't be implemented, as the output is no longer JSON.
