Json handling library for easily reading from and writing to json strings.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install with `composer require stratadox/json`

What is this?
-------------

[](#what-is-this)

This library provides a simple object-oriented way of dealing with json strings in php.

The basic idea is to create a `Json` (php) object from either a json string or "raw" data, which represents the json data in the php world. Through this object, the contents of the json data can be retrieved. The interface also provides a mechanism for altering the json structure, either by modifying the current instance or by returning a modified copy.

To produce a json-encoded text representation of the contents, simply casting the Json instance to string is enough.

How to use this?
----------------

[](#how-to-use-this)

The package provides two approaches to handling json structures: an immutable and a mutable way. They both implement the same interface and differ only in the way they implement the `write` method.

### Immutable Json

[](#immutable-json)

Create an immutable json structure by converting a json-encoded string:

```
