mir-ion 2.0.1

Mir Ion

This library seeks to implement the Ion file format. We aim to support both versions of Ion (text & binary Ion), as well as providing an implementation of the format that is performant and easy-to-use.

Mir Ion serialization engine supports

• Text and binary Ion
• JSON
• MsgPack
• YAML
• Bloomberg

Mir Ion supports JSON de/serialization out of the box. On the other hand, you may want to use another our JSON library -- Asdf. It uses the same serialization User Defined Attributes.

Twitter data set

Test data from nativejson-benchmark

-------------------------------------------------
Binary Ion writing      0.601 GB/s
     is equivalent of   1.598 GB/s for JSON

JSON    -> binary Ion   1.16 GB/s

MsgPack -> binary Ion   0.841 GB/s
     is equivalent of   1.321 GB/s for JSON


Ion is 96% smaller then minimized JSON
   and 69% smaller then MsgPack

Exceptions

Mir Ion internals are @nogc and almost all are preallocated. If DIP1008 is enabled, then the parsing exception will contains additional information about error location in the file and last occured key.
