Jessie JSON

Introduction

Jessie JSON is a simple, lightweight and memory-safe JSON library suitable for all kind of projects.

This library offers a Java implementation of JSON (RFC 8259) with a focus on memory safety. We achieve this by utilizing char[] instead of String, enhancing security through explicit clearing, mutability, and better memory control. This approach mitigates risks linked to string immutability and garbage collection.

Features

• 🚀 Easy Startup ➔ you can easily integrate the library and start parsing JSON immediately.
• 📚 Small Library ➔ you don't have to depend upon a bloated library (with transitive dependencies).
• 🔒 Memory Safety ➔ you can explicitly clear the buffer after usage (your sensitive data is protected).

TODO

• Add more testing and reach 100% code coverage (with JaCoCo).
• Improve the quality of the documentation.

Getting started

1. Add the dependency to your project pom.xml.

<dependency>
    <groupId>tech.tryangle</groupId>
    <artifactId>jessie-json</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.4</version>
</dependency>

2. Parse some JSON.

// 1. Parse the chars to a JSON entity
char[] raw = "{\"token\":{\"password\":\"123456\"}}".toCharArray();
JSONEntity json = JSONParser.parseJson(raw);

// 2. Easily get the desired field
char[] password = json.resolve("token.password", char[].class);
System.out.println(String.valueOf(password));
Arrays.fill(password, (char) -1);

// 3. Clear the chars and JSON entity content
Arrays.fill(raw, (char) -1);
json.clear();

3. To learn how to parse all kinds of structures 📚 check the documentation.
