NAME

PerlIO::via::json - PerlIO layer to convert to and from JSON

SYNOPSIS

use PerlIO::via::json;
open my $fh, '<:via(json)', 'file.xml' or die "...: $!";
my $json = <$fh>;

open my $fh, '>:via(json)', 'file.xml' or die "...: $!";
print $fh '{"key":"value"}';

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a PerlIO layer that converts a file to or from JSON format.

In fact, it currently only supports converting between XML and JSON. Any suggestions?

Note: The XML<->JSON conversion relies on XML::XML2JSON. The XML file will be slurped and parsed all at once.
