<h1 id="what-is-json" class="section-header"><a href="#what-is-json">What is JSON?</a></h1>
<p>JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a way to write data in Javascript.
Like XML, it allows encoding structured data in a text format that can be
easily read by humans. Its simple syntax and native compatibility with
JavaScript have made it a widely used format.</p>
<p>Data types that can be encoded are JavaScript types (see the <code>Json</code> enum
for more details):</p>
<ul>
<li><code>I64</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>i64</code></li>
<li><code>U64</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>u64</code></li>
<li><code>F64</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>f64</code></li>
<li><code>Boolean</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>bool</code></li>
<li><code>String</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>String</code></li>
<li><code>Array</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>Vec&lt;T&gt;</code>, but also allowing objects of
different types in the
same array</li>
<li><code>Object</code>: equivalent to rust's <code>BTreeMap&lt;String, json::Json&gt;</code></li>
<li><code>Null</code></li>
</ul>
<p>An object is a series of string keys mapping to values, in <code>&quot;key&quot;: value</code>
format. Arrays are enclosed in square brackets ([ ... ]) and objects in
curly brackets ({ ... }). A simple JSON document encoding a person,
their age, address and phone numbers could look like</p>

<h1 id="rust-type-based-encoding-and-decoding" class="section-header"><a href="#rust-type-based-encoding-and-decoding">Rust Type-based Encoding and Decoding</a></h1>
<p>Rust provides a mechanism for low boilerplate encoding &amp; decoding of values
to and from JSON via the serialization API. To be able to encode a piece
of data, it must implement the <code>rustc_serialize::Encodable</code> trait. To be
able to decode a piece of data, it must implement the
<code>rustc_serialize::Decodable</code> trait. The Rust compiler provides an
annotation to automatically generate the code for these traits:
<code>#[derive(RustcDecodable, RustcEncodable)]</code></p>
<p>The JSON API provides an enum <code>json::Json</code> and a trait <code>ToJson</code> to encode
objects. The <code>ToJson</code> trait provides a <code>to_json</code> method to convert an
object into a <code>json::Json</code> value. A <code>json::Json</code> value can be encoded as a
string or buffer using the functions described above. You can also use the
<code>json::Encoder</code> object, which implements the <code>Encoder</code> trait.</p>
<p>When using <code>ToJson</code>, the <code>Encodable</code> trait implementation is not
mandatory.</p>

<p>While this library is the standard way of working with JSON in Rust,
there is a next-generation library called Serde that's in the works (it's
faster, overcomes some design limitations of rustc-serialize and has more
features). You might consider using it when starting a new project or
evaluating Rust JSON performance.</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
