Currently, it supports XML and JSON. It also provides you with a rich tool-set to adapt the output to your specific needs. Built-in features include: - (De-)serialize data of any complexity; circular references and complex exclusion strategies are handled gracefully. - Supports many built-in PHP types (such as dates, intervals) - Integrates with Doctrine ORM, et. al. - Supports versioning, e.g. for APIs - Configurable via XML, YAML, or Annotations Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) Learn more about the serializer in its [documentation](http://jmsyst.com/libs/serializer). Notes ----- [](#notes) You are browsing the code for the 2.x version, if you are interested in the 1.x version, check the [1.x](https://github.com/schmittjoh/serializer/tree/1.x) branch. Differences between the 1.x and 2.x can be found in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/schmittjoh/serializer/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md). Upgrading from 1.x to 2.x should be almost transparent for most of the userland code, in the case you have heavily used internal-api or you are relaying on some of the removed features, the [UPGRADING](https://github.com/schmittjoh/serializer/blob/master/UPGRADING.md) document is a short guide on how to upgrade. Pull requests for new features are accepted only on the master branch. Bug fixes are accepted for both master and 1.x branches. Bug fixes sent on the 1.x branch, will be ported to the master branch when possible. ### Health Score 25 — LowBetter than 37% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity18 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity46 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
