This page links to demo projects suitable for learning to use the coreJSON library.
Separately, the
IoT Reference Integrations section demonstrates the library integrated into an application.
coreJSON
Parser library that strictly enforces the ECMA-404 JSON standard
Introduction
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a human-readable data serialization format which comes from JavaScript. It is widely used to exchange data, such as with the AWS IoT Device Shadow service, and is part of many APIs, such as the GitHub REST API. JSON is maintained as a standard by Ecma International.
The coreJSON library provides a parser that supports key lookups while strictly enforcing the standard (ECMA-404: The JSON Data Interchange Standard). The library is written in C and designed to comply with ISO C90 and MISRA C:2012. It has proofs showing safe memory use and no heap allocation, making it suitable for IoT microcontrollers, but also fully portable to other platforms.
Source Code Organization and Demos
The coreJSON library can be found in the
main FreeRTOS download in the
FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Plus/Source/coreJSON directory. A demonstration of the coreJSON library can viewed in the
IoT Device Shadow demo.
Memory Usage
The coreJSON library uses an internal stack to track nested structures in a JSON document. The stack exists for the duration of a single function call; it is not preserved. Stack size may be specified by defining the macro JSON_MAX_DEPTH, which defaults to 32 levels. Each level consumes a single byte.
