Some changes are coming to JsonSchema.Net: faster validation and fewer memory allocations thanks to a new keyword architecture. The best part: unless you’ve built your own keywords, this probably ...

var array = new JsonArray { ["a"] = 1, ["b"] = 2, ["c"] = 3, }; This compiles. Why does this compile?! Today we’re going to explore that. What’s wrong? In case you didn’t see it, ...

In my post comparing JSON Path and JSON Pointer, I made the following claim: A JSON Pointer can be expressed as a JSON Path only when all of its segments are non-numeric keys. Thinking about ...

This post wraps up (for now) the adventure of updating JsonSchema.Net to run in an async context by exploring parallel processing. First, let’s cover the concepts in JSON Schema that allow paralle...

Something I ran across while converting JsonSchema.Net from synchronous to asynchronous is that the “try” method pattern doesn’t work in an async context. This post explores the pattern and attemp...

The one thing I don’t like about how I’ve set up JsonSchema.Net is that SchemaRegistry.Fetch only supports synchronous methods. Today, I tried to remedy that. This post is a review of those prosp...

A common practice when serializing to JSON is to encode floating point numbers as strings. This is done any time high precision is required, such as in the financial or scientific sectors. This a...

IETF are submitting a new RFC to formalize the well-known JSON Path query syntax, originally proposed by Stefan Gössner in 2008. A brief history The effort to build a specification started after ...

This past weekend, I wondered if it was possible to validate JSON as it was being deserialized. For streaming deserialization, this is very difficult, if not impossible. It’s certainly not someth...

If you want to build JSON structures in your programming language, you need a data model. For .Net, that model exists in the System.Text.Json.Nodes namespace as JsonNode and its derived types, Jso...
