Bug#808148: ITP: r-cran-jsonlite -- Robust, High Performance JSON Parser and Generator for GNU R



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : r-cran-jsonlite
  Version         : 0.9.17
  Upstream Author : Jeroen Ooms <jeroen.ooms at stat.ucla.edu>
* URL             : https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/jsonlite/
* License         : MIT
  Programming Lang: C, R
  Description     : Robust, High Performance JSON Parser and Generator for GNU R

 The GNU R package jsonlite is a fast JSON parser and generator optimized
 for statistical data and the web.  The package offers flexible, robust,
 high performance tools for working with JSON in R and is particularly
 powerful for building pipelines and interacting with a web API. The
 implementation is based on the mapping described in the vignette (Ooms,
 2014). In addition to converting JSON data from/to R objects, 'jsonlite'
 contains functions to stream, validate, and prettify JSON data.  The unit
 tests included with the package verify that all edge cases are encoded
 and decoded consistently for use with dynamic data in systems and
 applications.

The R jsonlite package is needed for RStudio's Shiny Server.

I'm working on the jsonlite packaging using debian-science's git at Alioth, at
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-science/packages/r-cran-jsonlite.git .
