A fast JSON parser and Object marshaller as a Ruby gem.
Version 3.13 is out with a much faster parser (Oj::Parser
) and option isolation.
require 'oj'
h = { 'one' => 1, 'array' => [ true, false ] }
json = Oj.dump(h)
# json =
# {
# "one":1,
# "array":[
# true,
# false
# ]
# }
h2 = Oj.load(json)
puts "Same? #{h == h2}"
# true
gem install oj
or in Bundler:
gem 'oj'
See the Quickstart sections of the Rails and json docs.
Code which uses multi_json will automatically prefer Oj if it is installed.
Get supported Oj with a Tidelift Subscription. Security updates are supported.
