#pod =head1 SYNOPSIS
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any;
#pod     my $j = JSON::Any->new;
#pod     my $json = $j->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     my $obj = $j->jsonToObj($json);
#pod
#pod =head1 DEPRECATION NOTICE
#pod
#pod The original need for L<JSON::Any> has been solved (quite some time ago
#pod actually). If you're producing new code it is recommended to use L<JSON::MaybeXS> which
#pod will optionally use L<Cpanel::JSON::XS> for speed purposes.
#pod
#pod JSON::Any will continue to be maintained for compatibility with existing code,
#pod but for new code you should strongly consider using L<JSON::MaybeXS> instead.
#pod
#pod =head1 DESCRIPTION
#pod
#pod This module tries to provide a coherent API to bring together the various JSON
#pod modules currently on CPAN. This module will allow you to code to any JSON API
#pod and have it work regardless of which JSON module is actually installed.
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any;
#pod
#pod     my $j = JSON::Any->new;
#pod
#pod     $json = $j->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     $obj = $j->jsonToObj($json);
#pod
#pod or
#pod
#pod     $json = $j->encode({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     $obj = $j->decode($json);
#pod
#pod or
#pod
#pod     $json = $j->Dump({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     $obj = $j->Load($json);
#pod
#pod or
#pod
#pod     $json = $j->to_json({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     $obj = $j->from_json($json);
#pod
#pod or without creating an object:
#pod
#pod     $json = JSON::Any->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
#pod     $obj = JSON::Any->jsonToObj($json);
#pod
#pod On load, JSON::Any will find a valid JSON module in your @INC by looking
#pod for them in this order:
#pod
#pod     Cpanel::JSON::XS
#pod     JSON::XS
#pod     JSON::PP
#pod     JSON
#pod     JSON::DWIW
#pod
#pod And loading the first one it finds.
#pod
#pod You may change the order by specifying it on the C<use JSON::Any> line:
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any qw(DWIW XS CPANEL JSON PP);
#pod
#pod Specifying an order that is missing modules will prevent those module from
#pod being used:
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any qw(CPANEL PP); # same as JSON::MaybeXS
#pod
#pod This will check in that order, and will never attempt to load L<JSON::XS>,
#pod L<JSON.pm/JSON>, or L<JSON::DWIW>. This can also be set via the C<$ENV{JSON_ANY_ORDER}>
#pod environment variable.
#pod
#pod L<JSON::Syck> has been deprecated by its author, but in the attempt to still
#pod stay relevant as a "Compatibility Layer" JSON::Any still supports it. This support
#pod however has been made optional starting with JSON::Any 1.19. In deference to a
#pod bug request starting with L<JSON.pm|JSON> 1.20, L<JSON::Syck> and other deprecated modules
#pod will still be installed, but only as a last resort and will now include a
#pod warning.
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any qw(Syck XS JSON);
#pod
#pod or
#pod
#pod     $ENV{JSON_ANY_ORDER} = 'Syck XS JSON';
#pod
#pod At install time, JSON::Any will attempt to install L<JSON::PP> as a reasonable
#pod fallback if you do not appear have B<any> backends installed on your system.
#pod
#pod WARNING: If you call JSON::Any with an empty list
#pod
#pod     use JSON::Any ();
#pod
#pod It will skip the JSON package detection routines and will die loudly that it
#pod couldn't find a package.
#pod
#pod =head1 WARNING
#pod
#pod L<JSON::XS> 3.0 or higher has a conflict with any version of L<JSON.pm|JSON> less than 2.90
#pod when you use L<JSON.pm|JSON>'s C<-support_by_pp> option, which JSON::Any enables by
#pod default.
#pod
#pod This situation should only come up with JSON::Any if you have L<JSON.pm|JSON> 2.61 or
#pod lower B<and> L<JSON::XS> 3.0 or higher installed, and you use L<JSON.pm|JSON>
#pod via C<< use JSON::Any qw(JSON); >> or the C<JSON_ANY_ORDER> environment variable.
#pod
#pod If you run into an issue where you're getting recursive inheritance errors in a
#pod L<Types::Serialiser> package, please try upgrading L<JSON.pm|JSON> to 2.90 or higher.
#pod
#pod =head1 METHODS
#pod
#pod =head2 C<new>
#pod
#pod =for :stopwords recognised unicode
#pod
#pod Will take any of the parameters for the underlying system and pass them
#pod through. However these values don't map between JSON modules, so, from a
#pod portability standpoint this is really only helpful for those parameters that
#pod happen to have the same name.
#pod
#pod The one parameter that is universally supported (to the extent that is
#pod supported by the underlying JSON modules) is C<utf8>. When this parameter is
#pod enabled all resulting JSON will be marked as unicode, and all unicode strings
#pod in the input data structure will be preserved as such.
#pod
#pod Also note that the C<allow_blessed> parameter is recognised by all the modules
#pod that throw exceptions when a blessed reference is given them meaning that
#pod setting it to true works for all modules. Of course, that means that you
#pod cannot set it to false intentionally in order to always get such exceptions.
#pod
#pod The actual output will vary, for example L<JSON> will encode and decode
#pod unicode chars (the resulting JSON is not unicode) whereas L<JSON::XS> will emit
#pod unicode JSON.

=head1 NAME

JSON::Any - (DEPRECATED) Wrapper Class for the various JSON classes

=head1 VERSION

version 1.39

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use JSON::Any;
    my $j = JSON::Any->new;
    my $json = $j->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    my $obj = $j->jsonToObj($json);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module tries to provide a coherent API to bring together the various JSON
modules currently on CPAN. This module will allow you to code to any JSON API
and have it work regardless of which JSON module is actually installed.

    use JSON::Any;

    my $j = JSON::Any->new;

    $json = $j->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    $obj = $j->jsonToObj($json);

or

    $json = $j->encode({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    $obj = $j->decode($json);

or

    $json = $j->Dump({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    $obj = $j->Load($json);

or

    $json = $j->to_json({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    $obj = $j->from_json($json);

or without creating an object:

    $json = JSON::Any->objToJson({foo=>'bar', baz=>'quux'});
    $obj = JSON::Any->jsonToObj($json);

On load, JSON::Any will find a valid JSON module in your @INC by looking
for them in this order:

    Cpanel::JSON::XS
    JSON::XS
    JSON::PP
    JSON
    JSON::DWIW

And loading the first one it finds.

You may change the order by specifying it on the C<use JSON::Any> line:

    use JSON::Any qw(DWIW XS CPANEL JSON PP);

Specifying an order that is missing modules will prevent those module from
being used:

    use JSON::Any qw(CPANEL PP); # same as JSON::MaybeXS

This will check in that order, and will never attempt to load L<JSON::XS>,
L<JSON.pm/JSON>, or L<JSON::DWIW>. This can also be set via the C<$ENV{JSON_ANY_ORDER}>
environment variable.

L<JSON::Syck> has been deprecated by its author, but in the attempt to still
stay relevant as a "Compatibility Layer" JSON::Any still supports it. This support
however has been made optional starting with JSON::Any 1.19. In deference to a
bug request starting with L<JSON.pm|JSON> 1.20, L<JSON::Syck> and other deprecated modules
will still be installed, but only as a last resort and will now include a
warning.

    use JSON::Any qw(Syck XS JSON);

or

    $ENV{JSON_ANY_ORDER} = 'Syck XS JSON';

At install time, JSON::Any will attempt to install L<JSON::PP> as a reasonable
fallback if you do not appear have B<any> backends installed on your system.

WARNING: If you call JSON::Any with an empty list

    use JSON::Any ();

It will skip the JSON package detection routines and will die loudly that it
couldn't find a package.

=head1 DEPRECATION NOTICE

The original need for L<JSON::Any> has been solved (quite some time ago
actually). If you're producing new code it is recommended to use L<JSON::MaybeXS> which
will optionally use L<Cpanel::JSON::XS> for speed purposes.

JSON::Any will continue to be maintained for compatibility with existing code,
but for new code you should strongly consider using L<JSON::MaybeXS> instead.

=head1 WARNING

L<JSON::XS> 3.0 or higher has a conflict with any version of L<JSON.pm|JSON> less than 2.90
when you use L<JSON.pm|JSON>'s C<-support_by_pp> option, which JSON::Any enables by
default.

This situation should only come up with JSON::Any if you have L<JSON.pm|JSON> 2.61 or
lower B<and> L<JSON::XS> 3.0 or higher installed, and you use L<JSON.pm|JSON>
via C<< use JSON::Any qw(JSON); >> or the C<JSON_ANY_ORDER> environment variable.

If you run into an issue where you're getting recursive inheritance errors in a
L<Types::Serialiser> package, please try upgrading L<JSON.pm|JSON> to 2.90 or higher.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 C<new>

=for :stopwords recognised unicode

Will take any of the parameters for the underlying system and pass them
through. However these values don't map between JSON modules, so, from a
portability standpoint this is really only helpful for those parameters that
happen to have the same name.

The one parameter that is universally supported (to the extent that is
supported by the underlying JSON modules) is C<utf8>. When this parameter is
enabled all resulting JSON will be marked as unicode, and all unicode strings
in the input data structure will be preserved as such.

Also note that the C<allow_blessed> parameter is recognised by all the modules
that throw exceptions when a blessed reference is given them meaning that
setting it to true works for all modules. Of course, that means that you
cannot set it to false intentionally in order to always get such exceptions.

The actual output will vary, for example L<JSON> will encode and decode
unicode chars (the resulting JSON is not unicode) whereas L<JSON::XS> will emit
unicode JSON.

=head2 C<handlerType>

Takes no arguments, returns a string indicating which JSON Module is in use.

=head2 C<handler>

Takes no arguments, if called on an object returns the internal JSON::*
object in use.  Otherwise returns the JSON::* package we are using for
class methods.

=head2 C<true>

Takes no arguments, returns the special value that the internal JSON
object uses to map to a JSON C<true> boolean.

=head2 C<false>

Takes no arguments, returns the special value that the internal JSON
object uses to map to a JSON C<false> boolean.

=head2 C<objToJson>

Takes a single argument, a hashref to be converted into JSON.
It returns the JSON text in a scalar.

=head2 C<to_json>

=head2 C<Dump>

=head2 C<encode>

Aliases for C<objToJson>, can be used interchangeably, regardless of the
underlying JSON module.

=head2 C<jsonToObj>

Takes a single argument, a string of JSON text to be converted
back into a hashref.

=head2 C<from_json>

=head2 C<Load>

=head2 C<decode>

Aliases for C<jsonToObj>, can be used interchangeably, regardless of the
underlying JSON module.

=head1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

=for :stopwords Dimas Wistow mst

This module came about after discussions on irc.perl.org about the fact
that there were now six separate JSON perl modules with different interfaces.

In the spirit of Class::Any, JSON::Any was created with the considerable
help of Matt 'mst' Trout.

Simon Wistow graciously supplied a patch for backwards compatibility with JSON::XS
versions previous to 2.01
