condense-json 1.0

Release: condense-json 1.0 I'm trying to get braver at releasing 1.0 versions. This little library is a year and a half old now - I've applied some sensible and non-disruptive fixes and shipped the big 1.0 for it. Here's an example of what it can do, lifted from the README: { "foo": { "bar": { "string": "This is a string with foxes in it", "nested": { "more": ["Here is a string", "another with foxes in it too"] } } } } Combine that with a replacements object: {"1": "with foxes in it"} And condense_json(input_json, replacements) produces the following: { "foo": { "bar": { "string": {"$r": ["This is a string ", {"$": "1"}]}, "nested": { "more": ["Here is a string", {"$r": ["another ", {"$": "1"}, " too"]}] } } } } It scans for strings or substrings that are present in that replacements object and replaces those with a special {"$r": ...} syntax in the output. You can reverse the effect with uncondense_json(condensed, replacements). The idea is to make it easier to store JSON that includes duplicated data from other related structures. I use it to save space in the SQLite logs generated by LLM - see PR #1586 for the latest iteration of that. Tags: json, projects, python, llm
