Jansson README
==============

Jansson_ is a C library for encoding, decoding and manipulating JSON
data. Its main features and design principles are:

- Simple and intuitive API and data model

- Comprehensive documentation

- No dependencies on other libraries

- Full Unicode support (UTF-8)

- Extensive test suite

Jansson is licensed under the `MIT license`_; see LICENSE in the
source distribution for details.


Compilation and Installation
----------------------------

If you obtained a source tarball, just use the standard autotools
commands::

   $ ./configure
   $ make
   $ make install

To run the test suite, invoke::

   $ make check

If the source has been checked out from a Git repository, the
./configure script has to be generated fist. The easiest way is to use
autoreconf::

   $ autoreconf -i


Documentation
-------------

Prebuilt HTML documentation is available at
http://www.digip.org/jansson/doc/.

The documentation source is in the ``doc/`` subdirectory. To generate
HTML documentation, invoke::

   $ make html

Then, point your browser to ``doc/_build/html/index.html``. Sphinx_
1.0 or newer is required to generate the documentation.
