Jansson README ============== Jansson_ is a C library for encoding, decoding and manipulating JSON data. Its main features and design principles are: - Simple and intuitive API and data model - Good documentation - Full Unicode support (UTF-8) - Extensive test suite - No dependencies on other libraries Jansson is licensed under the `MIT license`_; see LICENSE in the source distribution for details. Compilation and Installation ---------------------------- If you obtained a source tarball, just use the standard autotools commands:: $ ./configure && make && make install If the source has been checked out from a Git repository, the ./configure script has to be generated fist. The easiest way is to use autoreconf:: $ autoreconf -i To run the test suite, invoke:: $ make check Python_ is required to run the tests. Documentation ------------- Documentation is in the ``doc/`` subdirectory. It's written in reStructuredText_ with Sphinx_ annotations, so reading it in plain may be inconvenient. For this reason, prebuilt HTML documentation is available at http://www.digip.org/jansson/doc/. To generate HTML documentation yourself, invoke:: cd doc/ sphinx-build . .build/html ... and point your browser to ``.build/html/index.html``. Sphinx_ is required to generate the documentation. .. _Jansson: http://www.digip.org/jansson/ .. _`MIT license`: http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php .. _Python: http://www.python.org/ .. _reStructuredText: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html .. _Sphinx: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/
