SBJson
A chunk-based JSON parser and generator for Objective-C, enabling stream processing of JSON data.
What is SBJson?
SBJson is a JSON parsing and generation framework for Objective-C that processes data in chunks or streams. It solves the problem of high memory usage and latency when handling large JSON documents or slow network connections by allowing incremental parsing. Developers can start processing and returning parsed results before the entire JSON payload has been fully downloaded.
iOS and macOS developers working with JSON APIs, especially those dealing with large datasets, real-time data feeds, or constrained memory environments.
SBJson offers unique stream-based parsing that reduces memory overhead and improves perceived performance. Its ability to handle multiple JSON documents sequentially and unwrap large arrays element-by-element makes it ideal for efficient data processing in Objective-C applications.
Overview
This framework implements a strict JSON parser and generator in Objective-C.
