GoJay is a high-performance JSON encoder/decoder library for Go that avoids reflection by using small interfaces, with support for stream decoding/encoding of delimited JSON from io.Reader/io.Writer. It also includes an optional unsafe API and a code generation tool to reduce boilerplate.
Use cases
- decode faster than encoding/
- parse newline-delimited streams from tcp or stdout
- encode a flow of objects to a writer
- reduce allocations in marshaling
- generate marshaler code for structs
- parse large files incrementally
When to avoid
- you just need simple, standard handling and prefer encoding/ compatibility
- you want a library with frequent updates and active maintenance
- you rely on reflection-based generic marshaling of arbitrary structs
