json简介

JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) 是一种轻量级的数据交换格式。 易于人阅读和编写。同时也易于机器解析和生成。 它基于JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999的一个子集,最新的定义可以参考ECMA-404_2nd_edition_The JSON Data Interchange Syntax,这份标准只有16页,可以一次性读完。

JSON具有以下这些形式:

  • 对象是一个无序的“‘名称/值’对”集合。一个对象以 { 左括号 \{_{左括号}{左括号​ 开始, } 右括号 \}_{右括号}}右括号​ 结束。每个“名称”后跟一个 : 冒号 :_{冒号}:冒号​ ;“‘名称/值’ 对”之间使用 , 逗号 ,_{逗号},逗号​ 分隔。
  • 数组是值(value)的有序集合。一个数组以 [ 左中括号 [_{左中括号}[左中括号​ 开始, ] 右中括号 ]_{右中括号}]右中括号​ 结束。值之间使用 ,逗号 分隔。
  • 值(value)可以是双引号括起来的字符串(string)、数值(number)、true、false、 null、对象(object)或者数组(array)。这些结构可以嵌套。
  • 字符串(string)是由双引号包围的任意数量Unicode字符的集合,使用反斜线转义。一个字符(character)即一个单独的字符串(character string)。
  • 数值(number)也与C或者Java的数值非常相似。除去未曾使用的八进制与十六进制格式。除去一些编码细节。
  • 空白可以加入到任何符号之间。
    一个典型的json结构如下所示
 {
     "FirstName": "John",
     "LastName": "Doe",
     "Age": 43,
     "Address": {
         "Street": "Downing Street 10",
         "City": "London",
         "Country": "Great Britain"
     },
     "Phone numbers": [
         "+44 1234567",
         "+44 2345678"
     ]
 }

CJSON

CJSON是一个基于C语言实现的json库,为了兼容更多的平台,使用ANSI C (C89)标准来编写,其项目地址在http://github.com/DaveGamble/cJSON。

如何在项目中使用CJSON

有两种方式:

  1. 使用链接库的方式,先编译成库,之后在项目中使用
  2. 直接将CJSON的源代码(cJSON.hcJSON.c)加到项目中,之后和项目一起编译
CJSON提供的接口

CJSON提供的接口都在cJSON.h中声明出来了(以CJSON_PUBLIC的宏开头),还有一些直接是宏

/* returns the version of cJSON as a string */
CJSON_PUBLIC(const char*) cJSON_Version(void);

/* Supply malloc, realloc and free functions to cJSON */
CJSON_PUBLIC(void) cJSON_InitHooks(cJSON_Hooks* hooks);

/* Memory Management: the caller is always responsible to free the results from all variants of cJSON_Parse (with cJSON_Delete) and cJSON_Print (with stdlib free, cJSON_Hooks.free_fn, or cJSON_free as appropriate). The exception is cJSON_PrintPreallocated, where the caller has full responsibility of the buffer. */
/* Supply a block of JSON, and this returns a cJSON object you can interrogate. */
CJSON_PUBLIC(cJSON *) cJSON_Parse(const char *value);
CJSON_PUBLIC(cJSON *) cJSON_ParseWithLength(const char *value, size_t buffer_length);

/* Render a cJSON entity to text using a buffer already allocated in memory with given length. Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure. */

CJSON_PUBLIC(void *) cJSON_malloc(size_t size);

CJSON数据结构

CJSON核心数据结构就只有一个:

typedef struct cJSON
{
    /* next/prev allow you to walk array/object chains. Alternatively, use GetArraySize/GetArrayItem/GetObjectItem */
    struct cJSON *next;
    struct cJSON *prev;
    /* An array or object item will have a child pointer pointing to a chain of the items in the array/object. */
    struct cJSON *child;

    /* The type of the item, as above. */
    int type;

    /* The item's string, if type==cJSON_String  and type == cJSON_Raw */
    char *valuestring;
    /* writing to valueint is DEPRECATED, use cJSON_SetNumberValue instead */
    int valueint;
    /* The item's number, if type==cJSON_Number */
    double valuedouble;

    /* The item's name string, if this item is the child of, or is in the list of subitems of an object. */
    char *string;
} cJSON;

可以看出,json是一个嵌套数据结构,这与json的定义所表达的思想一致。

CJSON使用实例
/**

 */
#include "../cJSON.h"
#include <stdio.h>

char simple_json[] = "{\
     \"FirstName\": \"John\",\
     \"LastName\": \"Doe\",\
     \"Age\": 43,\
     \"Address\": {\
         \"Street\": \"Downing Street 10\",\
         \"City\": \"London\",\
         \"Country\": \"Great Britain\"\
     },\
     \"Phone numbers\": [\
         \"+44 1234567\",\
         \"+44 2345678\"\
     ]\
 }";

int main()
{
    cJSON* json = cJSON_Parse(simple_json);
    cJSON_AddStringToObject(json, "ID", "666");
    char* print_json_str = cJSON_Print(json);
    printf("simple json: %s", print_json_str);

    return 0;
}

编译运行:

$./simple-cjson 
simple json: {
        "FirstName":    "John",
        "LastName":     "Doe",
        "Age":  43,
        "Address":      {
                "Street":       "Downing Street 10",
                "City": "London",
                "Country":      "Great Britain"
        },
        "Phone numbers":        ["+44 1234567", "+44 2345678"],
        "ID":   "666"
}

这部分完全可以参考CJSON项目的README

注意事项

CJSON使用ANSI C编写的,具有很多的指针操作,如果不注意非常容易产生指针操作相关的问题,这点最好阅读下项目的README和源代码。
