BREAKING CHANGES

Copy-constructor of BasicJsonDocument

In previous versions, the copy constructor of BasicJsonDocument looked at the source's memoryUsage() to choose its capacity. Now, the copy constructor of BasicJsonDocument uses the same capacity as the source.

Example:

DynamicJsonDocument doc1(64);
doc1.set(String("example"));

DynamicJsonDocument doc2 = doc1;
Serial.print(doc2.capacity());  // 8 with ArduinoJson 6.14
                                // 64 with ArduinoJson 6.15

I made this change to get consistent results between copy-constructor and move-constructor, and whether RVO applies or not.

If you use the copy-constructor to optimize your documents, you can use garbageCollect() or shrinkToFit() instead.

Copy-constructor of JsonDocument

In previous versions, it was possible to create a function that take a JsonDocument by value.

void myFunction(JsonDocument doc) {}

This function gives the wrong clues because it doesn't receive a copy of the JsonDocument, only a sliced version. It worked because the copy constructor copied the internal pointers, but it was an accident.

From now, if you need to pass a JsonDocument to a function, you must use a reference:

void myFunction(JsonDocument& doc) {}

v6.14.1 (2020-01-27)

• Fixed regression in UTF16 decoding (issue #1173)

• Fixed variant.is<nullptr_t>()
• Fixed value returned by serializeJson(), serializeJsonPretty(), and serializeMsgPack() when writing to a String
• Improved speed of serializeJson(), serializeJsonPretty(), and serializeMsgPack() when writing to a String

BREAKING CHANGES

Comments

Support for comments in input is now optional and disabled by default.

• Added ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_INFINITY (default=0) to enable Infinity in JSON
• Removed implicit conversion in comparison operators (issue #998)
• Added lexicographical comparison for JsonVariant
• Added support for nullptr (issue #998)

BREAKING CHANGES

NaN and Infinity

The JSON specification allows neither NaN not Infinity, but previous versions of ArduinoJson supported it. Now, ArduinoJson behaves like most other libraries: a NaN or and Infinity in the JsonDocument, becomes a null in the output JSON. Also, deserializeJson() returns InvalidInput if the JSON document contains NaN or Infinity.

This version still supports NaN and Infinity in JSON documents, but it's disabled by default to be compatible with other JSON parsers. If you need the old behavior back, define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_NAN and ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_INFINITY to 1;:

#define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_NAN 1
#define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_INFINITY 1
#include <ArduinoJson.h>

The "or" operator

This version slightly changes the behavior of the | operator when the variant contains a float and the user requests an integer.

Older versions returned the floating point value truncated. Now, it returns the default value.

// suppose variant contains 1.2
int value = variant | 3;

// old behavior:
value == 1

// new behavior
value == 3

If you need the old behavior, you must add if (variant.is<float>()).

• Fixed error "attributes are not allowed on a function-definition"
• Fixed deserializeJson() not being picky enough (issue #969)

BREAKING CHANGES

DynamicJsonDocument's constructor

The parameter to the constructor of DynamicJsonDocument is now mandatory

Old code:

DynamicJsonDocument doc;

New code:

DynamicJsonDocument doc(1024);

Nesting limit

JsonDocument::nestingLimit was replaced with a new parameter to deserializeJson() and deserializeMsgPack().

Old code:

doc.nestingLimit = 15;
deserializeJson(doc, input);

New code:

deserializeJson(doc, input, DeserializationOption::NestingLimit(15));

• Replaced JsonPair's key and value with key() and value()
• Fixed serializeJson(obj[key], dst) (issue #794)

BREAKING CHANGES

JsonVariant

JsonVariant now has a semantic similar to JsonObject and JsonArray. It's a reference to a value stored in the JsonDocument. As a consequence, a JsonVariant cannot be used as a standalone variable anymore.

Old code:

JsonVariant myValue = 42;

New code:

DynamicJsonDocument doc;
JsonVariant myValue = doc.to<JsonVariant>();
myValue.set(42);

JsonPair

Old code:

for(JsonPair p : myObject) {
  Serial.println(p.key);
  Serial.println(p.value.as<int>());
}

New code:

for(JsonPair p : myObject) {
  Serial.println(p.key());
  Serial.println(p.value().as<int>());
}

CAUTION: the key is now read only!

Preformatted values

Old code:

object["values"] = RawJson("[1,2,3,4]");

New code:

object["values"] = serialized("[1,2,3,4]");

v6.1.0-beta (2018-07-02)

• Return JsonArray and JsonObject by value instead of reference (issue #309)
• Replaced success() with isNull()

BREAKING CHANGES

Old code:

JsonObject& obj = doc.to<JsonObject>();
JsonArray& arr = obj.createNestedArray("key");
if (!arr.success()) {
  Serial.println("Not enough memory");
  return;
}

New code:

JsonObject obj = doc.to<JsonObject>();
JsonArray arr = obj.createNestedArray("key");
if (arr.isNull()) {
  Serial.println("Not enough memory");
  return;
}

BREAKING CHANGES

Deserialization

Old code:

DynamicJsonBuffer jb;
JsonObject& obj = jb.parseObject(json);
if (obj.success()) {

}

New code:

DynamicJsonDocument doc;
DeserializationError error = deserializeJson(doc, json);
if (error) {

}
JsonObject& obj = doc.as<JsonObject>();

Serialization

Old code:

DynamicJsonBuffer jb;
JsonObject& obj = jb.createObject();
obj["key"] = "value";

• Marked strdup() as deprecated

New rules for string duplication

type	duplication
const char*	no
char*	no yes
String	yes
std::string	yes
const __FlashStringHelper*	yes

These new rules make JsonBuffer::strdup() useless.

v5.12.0

How to use the new feature?

If you have a block like this:

const char* ssid = root["ssid"];
if (!ssid)
  ssid = "default ssid";

You can simplify like that:

const char* ssid = root["ssid"] | "default ssid";

BREAKING CHANGES ⚠️

JsonBuffer::parseObject() and JsonBuffer::parseArray() have been pulled down to the derived classes DynamicJsonBuffer and StaticJsonBufferBase.

This means that if you have code like:

void myFunction(JsonBuffer& jsonBuffer);

you need to replace it with one of the following:

void myFunction(DynamicJsonBuffer& jsonBuffer);
void myFunction(StaticJsonBufferBase& jsonBuffer);
template<typename TJsonBuffer> void myFunction(TJsonBuffer& jsonBuffer);

v5.7.3

• Increased default nesting limit to 50 when compiled for a computer (issue #349)

BREAKING CHANGES ⚠️

The non-template functions JsonObject::get() and JsonArray.get() have been removed. This means that you need to explicitely tell the type you expect in return.

Old code:

#define ARDUINOJSON_USE_ARDUINO_STRING 0
JsonVariant value1 = myObject.get("myKey");
JsonVariant value2 = myArray.get(0);

New code:

#define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_ARDUINO_STRING 0
#define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_STD_STRING 1
JsonVariant value1 = myObject.get<JsonVariant>("myKey");
JsonVariant value2 = myArray.get<JsonVariant>(0);

BREAKING CHANGE ⚠️

If you defined ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_STD_STREAM, you now need to define it to 1.

v5.0.8

• Made the library compatible with PlatformIO (issue #181)
• Fixed JsonVariant::is<bool>() that was incorrectly returning false (issue #214)

v5.0.7

• Made library easier to use from a CMake project: simply add_subdirectory(ArduinoJson/src)
• Changed String to be a typedef of std::string (issues #142 and #161)

BREAKING CHANGES ⚠️

• JsonVariant(true).as<String>() now returns "true" instead of "1"
• JsonVariant(false).as<String>() now returns "false" instead of "0"

v5.0.6

• Added parameter to DynamicJsonBuffer constructor to set initial size (issue #152)
• Fixed warning about library category in Arduino 1.6.6 (issue #147)
• Examples: Added a loop to wait for serial port to be ready (issue #156)

v5.0.5

• Added overload JsonObjectSuscript::set(value, decimals) (issue #143)
• Use float instead of double to reduce the size of JsonVariant (issue #134)

v5.0.4

• Fixed ambiguous overload with JsonArraySubscript and JsonObjectSubscript (issue #122)

v5.0.3

• Fixed printTo(String) which wrote numbers instead of strings (issue #120)
• Fixed return type of JsonArray::is<T>() and some others (issue #121)

v5.0.2

• Fixed segmentation fault in parseObject(String) and parseArray(String), when the StaticJsonBuffer is too small to hold a copy of the string
• Fixed Clang warning "register specifier is deprecated" (issue #102)
• Fixed GCC warning "declaration shadows a member" (issue #103)
• Fixed memory alignment, which made ESP8266 crash (issue #104)
• Fixed compilation on Visual Studio 2010 and 2012 (issue #107)

v5.0.1

• Fixed compilation with Arduino 1.0.6 (issue #99)

v5.0.0

• Added support of String class (issues #55, #56, #70, #77)
• Added JsonBuffer::strdup() to make a copy of a string (issues #10, #57)
• Implicitly call strdup() for String but not for char* (issues #84, #87)
• Added support of non standard JSON input (issue #44)
• Added support of comments in JSON input (issue #88)
• Added implicit cast between numerical types (issues #64, #69, #93)
• Added ability to read number values as string (issue #90)
• Redesigned JsonVariant to leverage converting constructors instead of assignment operators (issue #66)
• Switched to new the library layout (requires Arduino 1.0.6 or above)

BREAKING CHANGES ⚠️

• JsonObject::add() was renamed to set()
• JsonArray::at() and JsonObject::at() were renamed to get()
• Number of digits of floating point value are now set with double_with_n_digits()

Personal note about the String class: Support of the String class has been added to the library because many people use it in their programs. However, you should not see this as an invitation to use the String class. The String class is bad because it uses dynamic memory allocation. Compared to static allocation, it compiles to a bigger, slower program, and is less predictable. You certainly don't want that in an embedded environment!
