JSON Implementation

[rohan221102]

Implement JSON objects in Rinto such that it can read a .json file and initialise it as a Rinto object.

We're probably best off saving this until later. This sounds like it could be part of a Rinto standard library, so It'd be best to write it using the rinto language itself.

Example of JSON:

{
    "databases": [
        {
            "name": "MySQL",
            "type": "RDBMS"
        },
        {
            "name": "MongoDB",
            "type": "NoSQL"
        },
        {
            "name": "Neo4j",
            "type": "Graph DB"
        }
    ]
}

Rinto object example:

void main(){
    jsonObj example = jsonObj("example.json")

    print(example.databases[0].name)
    // Expected output: MySQL

    print(example.databases[0])

    /*
    Expected output:
        name: MySQL,
            type: RDBMS
    */

    print(example.databases)

    /*
    Expected output:
        [0]
        name: MySQL,
        type: RDBMS
        [1]
        name: MongoDB,
        type: NoSQL
        [2]
        name: Neo4j,
        type: Graph DB
    */

    print("MySQL" == example.databases[0].name)
    // Expected output: true

}

Do you plan to write this in C++, or do you propose that we add this as a feature of the rinto language?

[rohan221102]

I think that writing it natively would be best practise.

Sounds good. Should we create a github project board to keep track of todo's/features?

[rohan221102]

Sounds good to me
