Anyway pretty cool library, would definitely use it if I ever see line separated json data in the wild. die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt... anyway, really happy to see that asdf found a few uses and i can really recommend to try it out, even to replace the standard json libs in e.g. vibe.d, which is what i do too. Its not only faster but also easier, since you can use your structs/classes and have granular control over what properties are (de-)serialized.

One of my problem was that I have a struct with little different name that was attribute name used in json (positions and types has been correct), but it does not work and the error was really wierd so it took me a while until I have found out what was wrong. Other problem was with types when one json attribute can be a number or null Asdf was actually exactly created for this use case. You can do transformations when reading and writing. Also the null case is handled via different tools, please read the Readme and look into the API. If there is an use case that you seem not to be able to pull of, please file a ticket.

I've used asdf at work last week to build a json plugin for logparser: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logparser I have yet to ask permission to open source it, but I'll make an announcement if the boss agrees.

Asdf has a few nifty features that make it perfect for reading large amounts of json lines and transforming data. For an example use case see je, the json to csv transformer app ( https://github.com/tamediadigital/je ) I still think that it is by far the easiest to use and fastest production grade Json Library for D. Maybe it should be renamed to reflect that, proposals welcome. cheers, y Great! Thanks for keeping it alive. I use the library specifically for reading json files stored on s3 that were generated by aws' kinesis service. (The files have multiple json roots in them, but aren't separated by newlines; just one after another. I created a small custom parseJsonByLine for that).
