steve64 Is there a preferred way in LuaRT to convert a general JSON file/structure to a Lua representation? Also, it would be helpful to add this capability as part of LuaRT.
ruby http://dkolf.de/src/dkjson-lua.fsl/home This is a JSON module written in Lua. It supports UTF-8.
Samir You can also check this pure Lua implementation compatible with Lua 5.4 : https://github.com/rxi/json.lua Btw including Json parser in the LuaRT runtime library is not planned as it might increase interpreter executable size
Samir I have released a tiny but fast Json parser/serializer for LuaRT, available as a binary module for x86 ans x64. https://github.com/samyeyo/Json
