Objackson

This is a JSON serializer for Python that supports deep serialization of objects and full reconstruction of object structure on deserialization. Circular references are supported too.

How to install

Install latest version of Objackson from PyPI:

python3 -m pip install objackson

How to use

from objackson import obj2json, json2obj

class MyClass:

    def __init__(self, x=0, y=0):
        self.__x = x
        self.__y = y
    
    @property
    def x(self):
        return self.__x

    @property
    def y(self):
        return self.__y

    def __eq__(self, obj)
        return self.x == obj.x and self.y = obj.y
    
def main():
    obj1 = TestClass(2, 3)
    json = obj2json(obj1)
    obj2 = json2obj(json)

    # obj2 is a copy of obj1. Test it:
    if obj1 == obj2:
        print("SUCCESS")
    else:
        print("FAIL")

if __name__ == "__main__"
    main()

For a class to be serializable, it must have a constructor that allows zero-arguments initialization.
