Removed

• Removed dependency on easy-format and removed pretty_format from Yojson, Yojson.Basic, Yojson.Safe and Yojson.Raw. (@c-cube, #90)

• Removed dependency on biniou, simplifying the chain of dependencies. This changes some APIs:

  • Bi_outbuf.t in signatures is replaced with Buffer.t
  • to_outbuf becomes to_buffer and stream_to_outbuf becomes stream_to_buffer (@Leonidas-from-XIV, #74, and @gasche, #132)
• Removed yojson-biniou library
• Removed deprecated json type aliasing type t which has been available since 1.6.0 (@Leonidas-from-XIV, #100).
• Removed json_max type (@Leonidas-from-XIV, #103)
• Removed constraint that the "root" value being rendered (via either pretty_print or to_string) must be an object or array. (@cemerick, #121)
• Removed validate_json as it only made sense if the type was called json. (@Leonidas-from-XIV, #137)

Add

• Add an opam package yojson-bench to deal with benchmarks dependency (@tmcgilchrist, #117)
• Add a benchmark to judge the respective performance of providing a buffer vs letting Yojson create an internal (#134, @Leonidas-from-XIV)
• Add an optional suf keyword argument was added to functions that write serialized JSON, thus allowing NDJSON output. Most functions default to not adding any suffix except for to_file (#124, @panglesd) and functions writing sequences of values where the default is \n (#135, @Leonidas-from-XIV)

Change

• The stream_from_* and stream_to_* functions now use a Seq.t instead of a Stream.t, and they are renamed into seq_from_* and seq_to_* (@gasche, #131).

Fix

• Avoid copying unnecessarily large amounts of strings when parsing (#85, #108, @Leonidas-from-XIV)
• Fix stream_to_file (#133, @tcoopman and @gasche)
