Hi,

I am happy to announce a new minor guile-json release 0.5.0. This
release allows converting simple alists to json. Thanks to Jan
Nieuwenhuizen!

For example:

    scheme@(json)> (scm->json-string '((a . 1) (b . 2)))
    $2 = "{\"a\" : 1,\"b\" : 2}"

For installation details and documentation:

Happy hacking!

Aleix

That's interesting!

BTW, how do you differentiate between these two cases?

  {"a": ["b", "c", "d"]}
  ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

AFAICT both in scheme would be represented as:

  '("a" . ("b" "c" "d"))

... or can only symbols be keys?

Yay!

    scheme@(json)> (scm->json-string '((a . (b c d))))
    $2 = "{\"a\" : [\"b\", \"c\", \"d\"]}"

>   ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

    scheme@(json)> (scm->json-string '(a . (b c d)))
    $3 = "[\"a\", \"b\", \"c\", \"d\"]"

Alists (json-alist?) are converted to objects, other lists to arrays.  A
"json-alist" has key-value pairs and uses atoms as key.

Greetings,
Jan
