pkg/json

An alternative JSON decoder for Go.

Features

pkg/json aims to be a drop in replacement for encoding/json. It features:

json.Scanner which, when provided an external buffer, does not allocate.
io.Reader friendly; you don't need to buffer your input in memory.
json.Decoder.Token() replacement that is 2-3x faster than encoding/json.
json.Decoder.NextToken() is almost allocation free.

Is it faster than fastjson/ultrajson/megajson/fujson?

Honestly, I don't know. I have some benchmarks that show that pkg/json is faster than encoding/json for tokenisation, but this package isn't finished yet.

The Decoder.Token API is between 2-3x faster than encoding/json.Decoder.Token:

The alternative Decoder.NextToken API is between 8-10x faster than encoding/json.Decoder.Token while producing virtually no allocations:

Decoding into an interface{} this package is 40-50% faster than encoding/json:
