v1.0.0
Release Date: March 9, 2025
After extensive development and testing, json-as has reached its first stable release! Version 1.0.0 delivers robust AssemblyScript-powered JSON serialization and deserialization, optimized for performance and memory efficiency at O(1)
🚀 Highlights of 1.0.0
✨ Major Fixes & Improvements
- Fixed: Relative paths pointing through node_modules no longer create duplicate Source instances.
- Fixed: Object keys containing brackets or braces no longer cause premature deserialization termination.
- Fixed: Various memory optimizations to reduce leaks and improve performance.
- Fixed: Proper handling of boolean deserialization, preventing crashes on false.
- Fixed: Proper implementation of JSON.Value for arbitrary value deserialization
- Fixed: Proper handling of pointers and type errors
- Fixed: Support for multiple transforms from different libraries working together
🔧 Transform Enhancements
- New: The behavior of --lib is now built directly into the transform.
- Refactored: The transform now correctly generates load operations for object keys.
- Fixed: Whitespace handling in objects and struct deserialization.
🛠️ Feature Additions
- Custom Serializers & Deserializers – Full support for user-defined (de)serialization logic.
- JSON.Obj Support – More powerful handling of arbitrary JSON objects.
- JSON.Raw Support – Support inserting raw JSON blobs into documents
- JSON.Value Support – Support using arbitrary types in JSON
- Benchmarks – Performance comparisons for both AssemblyScript and JavaScript environments.
- Memory Efficiency – Pre-allocated schema sizes reduce unnecessary memory allocations.
- Central Buffer – Essentially means Zero Memory Growth and allocations
📚 Documentation Updates
- Added clearer instructions for using
@omit,custom serializers/deserializers, and arbitrary values - Updated README to reflect the latest feature set
⚡ What's Next?
With json-as now stable, future updates will focus on:
- Further performance optimizations.
- Enhancing compatibility with more AssemblyScript projects.
- Additional utilities for JSON schema validation and transformation.
