The JSON Module¶

Peel makes interacting with JSON easy through the JSON global object.

Parsing JSON¶

The JSON.parse function takes a string and converts it into a Peel object or value.

let raw_json = "{\"name\": \"Peel Coder\", \"level\": 99}";
let user = JSON.parse(raw_json);

fmt.println("Username:", user.name);

Stringifying JSON¶

The JSON.stringify function takes any Peel value and converts it into a JSON string.

let data = {
    theme: "dark",
    auto_save: true
};

let payload = JSON.stringify(data);
fmt.println(payload); // {"theme":"dark","auto_save":true}

Handling Types¶

• Peel List becomes a JSON Array.
• Peel Object becomes a JSON Object.
• int and float become JSON Numbers.
• bool and string are mapped directly.
• Void becomes null.
