orjson

Warnings

• breaking orjson 3.11.7 introduces a breaking change in the deserialization function, requiring explicit UTF-8 encoding for JSON input.
  Fix: Ensure that all JSON input passed to orjson.loads() is encoded in UTF-8.
• gotcha Using orjson.dumps() on non-serializable objects will raise a TypeError.
  Fix: Ensure all objects passed to orjson.dumps() are serializable, or handle exceptions appropriately.

Install

Quickstart

A simple example demonstrating serialization and deserialization using orjson.

import orjson

# Serialize a Python object to JSON
data = {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 30}
json_bytes = orjson.dumps(data)
json_str = json_bytes.decode('utf-8')
print(json_str)

# Deserialize JSON to a Python object
json_bytes = b'{"name":"Alice","age":30}'
parsed_data = orjson.loads(json_bytes)
print(parsed_data)
