Dependencies for Building
=========================
- You need rake to build the extensions and install them.
You can get it from rubyforge:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/rake
or just type
# gem install rake
for the installation via rubygems.
- If you want to rebuild the parser.c file or draw nice graphviz images of the
state machines, you need ragel from:
http://www.cs.queensu.ca/~thurston/ragel
Installation
============
It's recommended to use the extension variant of JSON, because it's quite a bit
faster than the pure ruby variant. If you cannot build it on your system, you
can settle for the latter.
Just type into the command line as root:
# rake install
The above command will build the extensions and install them on your system.
# rake install_pure
or
# ruby install.rb
will just install the pure ruby implementation of JSON.
If you use Rubygems you can type
# gem install json
instead, to install the newest JSON version.
There is also a pure ruby json only variant of the gem, that can be installed
with:
# gem install json_pure
Testing and Examples
====================
To run the tests type:
$ rake test_ext
This will build the extensions first and then test them.
$ rake test_pure
This will test the pure ruby extensions.
There is also a small example in tools/server.rb if you want to see, how
receiving a JSON object from a webrick server in your browser with the
javasript prototype library (http://www.prototypejs.org) works.
