290If C<$enable> is true (or missing), then C<decode> will accept some
291extensions to normal JSON syntax (see below). C<encode> will not be
292affected in anyway. I<Be aware that this option makes you accept invalid
293JSON texts as if they were valid!>. I suggest only to use this option to
294parse application-specific files written by humans (configuration files,
295resource files etc.)
296
297If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<decode> will only accept
298valid JSON texts.
299
300Currently accepted extensions are:
301
302=over 4
303
304=item * list items can have an end-comma
305
306JSON I<separates> array elements and key-value pairs with commas. This
307can be annoying if you write JSON texts manually and want to be able to
308quickly append elements, so this extension accepts comma at the end of
309such items not just between them:
310
311 [
312 1,
313 2, <- this comma not normally allowed
314 ]

316 "k1": "v1",
317 "k2": "v2", <- this comma not normally allowed
318 }
319
320=item * shell-style '#'-comments
321
322Whenever JSON allows whitespace, shell-style comments are additionally
323allowed. They are terminated by the first carriage-return or line-feed
324character, after which more white-space and comments are allowed.

402
403=item $json = $json->filter_json_object ([$coderef->($hashref)])
404
405When C<$coderef> is specified, it will be called from C<decode> each
406time it decodes a JSON object. The only argument is a reference to the
407newly-created hash. If the code references returns a single scalar (which
408need not be a reference), this value (i.e. a copy of that scalar to avoid
409aliasing) is inserted into the deserialised data structure. If it returns
410an empty list (NOTE: I<not> C<undef>, which is a valid scalar), the
411original deserialised hash will be inserted. This setting can slow down
412decoding considerably.
413
414When C<$coderef> is omitted or undefined, any existing callback will
415be removed and C<decode> will not change the deserialised hash in any
416way.
417
418Example, convert all JSON objects into the integer 5:
419
420 my $js = JSON::XS->new->filter_json_object (sub { 5 });
421 # returns [5]
422 $js->decode ('[{}]')
423 # throw an exception because allow_nonref is not enabled
424 # so a lone 5 is not allowed.
425 $js->decode ('{"a":1, "b":2}');
426
427=item $json = $json->filter_json_single_key_object ($key [=> $coderef->($value)])
428
429Works remotely similar to C<filter_json_object>, but is only called for
430JSON objects having a single key named C<$key>.
431
432This C<$coderef> is called before the one specified via
433C<filter_json_object>, if any. It gets passed the single value in the JSON
434object. If it returns a single value, it will be inserted into the data
435structure. If it returns nothing (not even C<undef> but the empty list),
436the callback from C<filter_json_object> will be called next, as if no
437single-key callback were specified.
438
439If C<$coderef> is omitted or undefined, the corresponding callback will be
440disabled. There can only ever be one callback for a given key.
441
442As this callback gets called less often then the C<filter_json_object>
443one, decoding speed will not usually suffer as much. Therefore, single-key
444objects make excellent targets to serialise Perl objects into, especially
445as single-key JSON objects are as close to the type-tagged value concept
446as JSON gets (its basically an ID/VALUE tuple). Of course, JSON does not
447support this in any way, so you need to make sure your data never looks
448like a serialised Perl hash.
449
450Typical names for the single object key are C<__class_whatever__>, or
451C<$__dollars_are_rarely_used__$> or C<}ugly_brace_placement>, or even
452things like C<__class_md5sum(classname)__>, to reduce the risk of clashing
453with real hashes.
454
455Example, decode JSON objects of the form C<< { "__widget__" => <id> } >>
456into the corresponding C<< $WIDGET{<id>} >> object:
457
458 # return whatever is in $WIDGET{5}:
459 JSON::XS
460 ->new
461 ->filter_json_single_key_object (__widget__ => sub {
462 $WIDGET{ $_[0] }
463 })
464 ->decode ('{"__widget__": 5')
465
466 # this can be used with a TO_JSON method in some "widget" class
467 # for serialisation to json:
468 sub WidgetBase::TO_JSON {
469 my ($self) = @_;
470
471 unless ($self->{id}) {
472 $self->{id} = ..get..some..id..;
473 $WIDGET{$self->{id}} = $self;
474 }
475
476 { __widget__ => $self->{id} }
477 }

486represent more values exactly than (floating point) numbers. 612might represent more values exactly than (floating point) numbers.
613
614If the number consists of digits only, JSON::XS will try to represent
615it as an integer value. If that fails, it will try to represent it as
616a numeric (floating point) value if that is possible without loss of
617precision. Otherwise it will preserve the number as a string value.
618
619Numbers containing a fractional or exponential part will always be
620represented as numeric (floating point) values, possibly at a loss of
621precision.
622
623This might create round-tripping problems as numbers might become strings,
624but as Perl is typeless there is no other way to do it.
