My other message has some. It isn't quite as nice to use though - getting structs and such takes a little bit of work. For example, I use it to get stuff from Facebook, and it looks kinda like this: === auto request = parseSignedRequest(signed_request).get!(Variant[string]); if("page" in request) { auto page = request["page"].get!(Variant[string]); pageId = page["id"].coerce!string; likes = page["liked"].get!bool; } === It's not as beautiful as it could be, but it works reasonably well anyway, which is why I'm happy enough with it as it is. > Also how do you workaround bug #2962? I don't know anymore! For a while, I used a private fork of std.json with the floating point functionality removed and a utf related bug worked around, but now that fork is completely commented out and I just use the stock std.json. Problem is I don't remember if it's because the bugs got fixed upstream, or if they just didn't bother me anymore... Regardless though, it works in a test on my box at least. Paste that code into a fresh file. void main() { auto v = jsonToVariant("4.2"); writeln(v.get!real); } compiles and runs correctly.
