Open.Serialization

DI/IoC agnostic interfaces for injecting any serialization library.

Implementation

With the following libraries, you can build other libraries that sever their dependency from any serializer and allow you to inject whichever you want. You can also easily integrate another serializer and still retain the DI/IoC happiness.

Core Interfaces & Extensions

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Open.Serialization
Core package for serializing anything.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Open.Serialization.Json
Core package specific to JSON.

Library/Vendor Specific Implementations

services.AddJsonSerializer();

The following libs contain support for Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.
Import any of these and you can use the above extension to inject default serializers.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Open.Serialization.Json.Newtonsoft
Extensions and DI for Newtonsoft.Json.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Open.Serialization.Json.System
Extensions and DI for System.Text.Json. Note: There is no IJsonObjectSerializer option for System.Text.Json.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Open.Serialization.Json.Utf8Json
Extensions and DI for Utf8Json.
