Glue to hslua for aeson values.
This provides a StackValue
instance for aeson's Value
type. The following
conventions are used:
-
Null
values are encoded as a special value (stored in the registry fieldHSLUA_AESON_NULL
). Usingnil
would cause problems with null-containing arrays. -
Objects are converted to tables in a straight-forward way.
-
Arrays are converted to Lua tables. Array-length is included as the value at index 0. This makes it possible to distinguish between empty arrays and empty objects.
-
JSON numbers are converted to Lua numbers (usually doubles), which can cause a loss of precision.
