Features
Serializing Collections: Lists, Dictionaries, IEnumerable
Serializing KeyValuePair
Serializing ISerializable
Surrogate Serialization
Serializing Almost anything (Automatically serializes public fields and properties)
Deserializing IDeserializationCallback
Fast and Helpful Customer Support
Free & Open Source
Easy to Use
Cross Platform (Let us know if you have any problem with any platform)
Getting Started
using BayatGames.Serialization.Formatters.Json;
then you are ready to go.
JsonFormatter provides some static methods for fast serialization of objects to json string:
using BayatGames.Serialization.Formatters.Json;
...
string json = JsonFormatter.SerializeObject ("Hello World");

I have information pulled from a restAPI, how would I use this to deserialise that information?
Could you post an example of response?
You can use JsonFormatter.DeserializeObject(string json, typeof(Dictionary<string, string>)).
Also you can make a storage object to store the response in a pre-defined object and use it for deserialization.
Hello - I am trying to use the JsonFormatter with a simple Vector3 surrogate, but it does not seem to serialize the Vec3. I am using the following to setup and test the surrogate but not having much success
public void Save()
{
JsonFormatter formatter = new JsonFormatter();
SurrogateSelector ss = new SurrogateSelector();
Vector3Surrogate Vector3_SS = new Vector3Surrogate();
ss.AddSurrogate(typeof(Vector3), new StreamingContext(StreamingContextStates.All), Vector3_SS);
formatter.surrogateSelector = ss;
var saveData = new MyClass();
string json = formatter.Serialize(saveData);
Debug.Log(json);
}
public class MyClass
{
public string Name = "test";
public Vector3 Vector;
public MyClass()
{
Vector = new Vector3(1f, 2f, 3f);
}
}

Hi.
Thanks.
I am not getting an error. I just get an empty json string as output from the serialize call.
class Vector3Surrogate : ISerializationSurrogate
{
// Method called to serialize a Vector3 object
public void GetObjectData(System.Object obj, SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context)
{
Vector3 vector = (Vector3) obj;
info.AddValue("x", vector.x);
info.AddValue("y", vector.y);
info.AddValue("z", vector.z);
}
// Method called to deserialize a Vector3 object
public System.Object SetObjectData(System.Object obj, SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context, ISurrogateSelector selector)
{
return new UnityEngine.Vector3(info.GetSingle("x"), info.GetSingle("y"), info.GetSingle("z"));
}
}
Getting FormatException: error while deserializing can any one plz help.
