The json::write package provides a simple Tcl-only library
    for generation of text in the JSON http://www.json.org/ data exchange
    format as specified in RFC 4627
  http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt.









  
::json::write indented

  
This method returns the current state of the indentation setting.

  
::json::write indented flag

  
This and the method aligned configure the layout of the JSON
      generated by the package.
    
If this flag is set (default) the package will break
        the generated JSON code across lines and indent it according to its
        inner structure, with each key of an object on a separate line.

    
If this flag is not set, the whole JSON object will be written
        on a single line, with minimum spacing between all elements.

  

  
::json::write aligned

  
This method returns the current state of the alignment setting.

  
::json::write aligned flag

  
This and the method indented configure the layout of the JSON
      generated by the package.
    
If this flag is set (default) the package ensures that
        the values for the keys in an object are vertically aligned with each
        other, for a nice table effect. To make this work this also implies that
        indented is set as well.

    
If this flag is not set, the output is formatted as per the
        value of indented, without trying to align the values for object
        keys.

  

  
::json::write string s

  
This method takes the string s and returns it properly quoted for
      JSON as its result.

  
::json::write array arg...

  
This method takes a series of JSON formatted arguments and returns them as
      a properly formatted JSON array as its result.

  
::json::write object key value...

  
This method takes a series of key/value arguments, the values already
      formatted for JSON, and returns them as a properly formatted JSON object
      as its result, with the keys formatted as JSON strings.
