Really simple JSON and XML parsing, ripped from Merb and Rails. The XML parser is ripped from Merb and the JSON parser is ripped from Rails. I take no credit, just packaged them for all to enjoy and easily use.

compatibility

  • Ruby 2.x
  • Ruby 3.x

note on patches/pull requests

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Run the tests with rake test
  • Open a Pull Request with the changes

usage

gem 'crack' # in Gemfile
require 'crack' # for xml and json
require 'crack/json' # for just json
require 'crack/xml' # for just xml

examples

Crack::XML.parse("<tag>This is the contents</tag>")
# => {'tag' => 'This is the contents'}

Crack::JSON.parse('{"tag":"This is the contents"}')
# => {'tag' => 'This is the contents'}
