Welcome
Welcome to the homepage of svjson project!
The project introduces JSON decoder and encoder in pure SystemVerilog without any external dependencies.
-
JSON decoder can parse values from string or file
-
JSON encoder can dump values to string or file
-
JSON values (object, array, string, number, bool) are represented with collection of wrapper classes
-
JSON encoding capability can be added to user classes with collection of interface classes
-
Additional classes for encoding SystemVerilog enums and bit vectors of any width
-
Error reporting and propagation system inspired by Rust
Implementation follows ECMA standard with some limitations:
-
\band\uescape sequences are not supported for decoder/encoder -
Nesting depth is limited for decoder (1024 by default, limit is controllable)
-
No recursion detection for encoder
| The package is developed and tested using Verilator 5.24 only. Support of other simulators is planned, but Verilator still will be the main simulator for project as it is the only viable option to organize CI and opensource flow. |

JSON.sv |
Implementation of JSON encoder/decoder in SystemVerilog. Integrated into FuseSoc ecosystem. It has only few tests and almost no documentation. |
|
JSONPacketParser |
Project uses the JSMN library to parse a JSON file into a C data structure. This data structure is then passed to a SystemVerilog testbench via DPI. |
|
JSONinSV |
JSON encoder and decoder in SystemVerilog. It is well tested (own framework is introduced). Project comes with a nicely structured README (on Chinese, though). |

JSON-for-VHDL |
JSON decoder in VHDL. Tested against well-known JSON Test Suite. |
