<h2><a name="functions"></a>Functions</h2>
<dl class="function">
<dt><a name="parser.parse"></a><strong>parser:parse</strong>&nbsp;(json)</dt>
<dd>
Parses one chunk of JSON data.
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<ul>
<li>
json: String containing the JSON fragment to parse
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>parser = luci.jsonc.new()
while true do
chunk = ... -- fetch a cunk of data, e.g. from a socket
finish, errmsg = <b>parser.parse(chunk)</b>
if finish == nil then
error("Cannot parse JSON: " .. errmsg)
end
if finish == true then
break
end
end</pre>
<h3>Return value:</h3>
<ul>
<li><code>true</code> if a complete JSON object has been parsed and no further input is
expected.</li>
<li><code>false</code> if further input is required</li>
<li><code>nil</code> if an error was encountered while parsing the current chunk.
In this case a string describing the parse error is returned as second
value.</li></ul>

</dd>
<dt><a name="parser.get"></a><strong>parser:get</strong>&nbsp;()</dt>
<dd>
Convert parsed JSON data into Lua table.
<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>parser = luci.jsonc.new()
parser:parse('{ "example": "test" }')
data = parser:get()
print(data.example) -- "test"</pre>
<h3>Return value:</h3>
Parsed JSON object converted into a Lua table or <code>nil</code> if the parser
didn't finish or encountered an error.

</dd>
<dt><a name="parser.set"></a><strong>parser:set</strong>&nbsp;(data)</dt>
<dd>
Put Lua data into the parser.
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<ul>
<li>
data: Lua data to put into the parser object. The data is converted to an
internal JSON representation that can be dumped with <code>stringify()</code>.
The conversion follows the rules described in <code>luci.jsonc.stringify</code>.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>parser = luci.jsonc.new()
parser:set({ "some", "data" })</pre>
<h3>Return value:</h3>
Nothing is returned.

<dd>
Generate an ltn12-compatible sink.
<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>parser = luci.jsonc.new()
ltn12.pump.all(ltn12.source.file(io.input()), parser:sink())
print(parser:get())</pre>
<h3>Return value:</h3>
Returns a function that can be used as an ltn12 sink.
</dd>
<dt><a name="parser.stringify"></a><strong>parser:stringify</strong>&nbsp;(pretty)</dt>
<dd>
Serialize current parser state as JSON.
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<ul>
<li>
pretty: A boolean value indicating whether the resulting JSON should be pretty printed.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>parser = luci.jsonc.new()
parser:parse('{ "example": "test" }')
print(parser:serialize()) -- '{"example":"test"}'</pre>
<h3>Return value:</h3>
Returns the serialized JSON data of this parser instance.
