Hello,

Perfwatcher (http://perfwatcher.org) needs a Collectd plugin named jsonrpc. That plugin uses libjson and has proved it stability (at least for the use that Collectd-jsonrpc/Perfwatcher does)

For your information, I moved from libyajl to libjson with no problem a little more than 1 year ago. I don't remember the precise reason for that move, but it was probably a missing feature in libyajl. Today, it would be a lot of work to move back to libyajl for that plugin.

But you do not care about my mail because jsonrpc is not an official plugin of Collectd :)

Regards,
Yves

Last time ceph was mentioned on the list, the question was if using libyajl (which the curl_json plugin uses) over libjson (that the ceph plugin uses)
was possible. The question remains open AFAIK. From the maintenance and
packaging point of view, it's really better not to depend on different
libraries providing the same features.

On the other hand, if libjson is considered better than libyajl, why not
consider changing curl_json to use it ?

In both cases, the amount of code actually using libjson/libyajl doesn't
seem to be huge. Do you think this is something that could be done ?
