This package provides the C implementation of the varlink interface description protocol and its associated command line tool

Libmpack is a small binary serialization and RPC library that implements both the msgpack and msgpack-rpc specifications.

The rencode module is a data structure serialization library, similar to bencode from the BitTorrent project. For complex, heterogeneous data structures with many small elements, r-encoding stake up significantly less space than b-encodings. This version of rencode is a complete rewrite in Cython to attempt to increase the performance over the pure Python module.

LibYAML is a YAML 1.1 parser and emitter written in C.

This package provides YAML parser/emitter that supports roundtrip preservation of comments, seq/map flow style, and map key order. It is a derivative of Kirill Simonov’s PyYAML 3.11. It supports YAML 1.2 and has round-trip loaders and dumpers. It supports comments. Block style and key ordering are kept, so you can diff the source.

Msgpack is a library for C that implements binary serialization.

This package provides a C version of the reader, parser and emitter for ruamel.yaml derived from libyaml.

Valijson is a header-only JSON Schema validation library for C++11. It provides a simple validation API that allows loading JSON Schemas, and validate documents loaded by one of several supported parser libraries.

StrictYAML is a type-safe YAML parser that parses and validates a restricted subset of the YAML specification.

FlatBuffers is a cross-platform serialization library for C++, C#, C, Go, Java, JavaScript, PHP, and Python. It was originally created for game development and other performance-critical applications.

This package provides a JSON parser written in shell, compatible with ash, Bash, Dash and Zsh. Pipe JSON to it, and it traverses the JSON objects and prints out the path to the current object (as a JSON array) and then the object, without whitespace.

qtcsv is a library for reading and writing CSV files in Qt.

Libfyaml is a YAML parser and emitter, supporting the latest YAML spec and passing the full YAML testsuite. It is designed to be very efficient, avoiding copies of data, and has no artificial limits like the 1024 character limit for implicit keys.

msgspec is a fast serialization and validation library, with builtin support for JSON, MessagePack, YAML, and TOML. It includes the following features:

• High performance encoders/decoders for common protocols.

• Support for a wide variety of Python types.

• Zero-cost schema validation using familiar Python type annotations.

• A speedy Struct type for representing structured data.

Apache Avro is a data serialization system. Avro provides:

1. Rich data structures;

2. a compact, fast, binary data format;

3. a container file, to store persistent data;

4. remote procedure call (RPC); and

5. simple integration with dynamic languages.

Code generation is not required to read or write data files nor to use or implement RPC protocols.

ckdl is a C library for parsing and emitting KDL. This package also provides kdlpp, a C++20 wrapper around ckdl.

Cereal is a header-only C++11 serialization library. Cereal takes arbitrary data types and reversibly turns them into different representations, such as compact binary encodings, XML, or JSON.

YAML parser and emitter in C++ matching the YAML 1.2 spec.

Msgpack is a library for C/C++ that implements binary serialization. This is the legacy version that predates the split into C and C++ specific packages.

ckdl is a C library for parsing and emitting KDL. This package also provides kdlpp, a C++20 wrapper around ckdl.

This package provides a C library for parsing and writing CSV data.

Libmpack is a small binary serialization and RPC library that implements both the msgpack and msgpack-rpc specifications.

Python-cbor provides an implementation of the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR). CBOR is comparable to JSON, has a superset of JSON's ability, but serializes to a binary format which is smaller and faster to generate and parse. The two primary functions are cbor.loads and cbor.dumps.

libnop is a header-only library for serializing and deserializing C++ data types without external code generators or runtime support libraries.
