Public Instance Methods

as_json(*) click to toggle source

Methods Set#as_json and Set.json_create may be used to serialize and deserialize a Set object; see Marshal.

Method Set#as_json serializes self, returning a 2-element hash representing self:

require 'json/add/set'
x = Set.new(%w/foo bar baz/).as_json
# => {"json_class"=>"Set", "a"=>["foo", "bar", "baz"]}

Method JSON.create deserializes such a hash, returning a Set object:

Set.json_create(x) # => #<Set: {"foo", "bar", "baz"}>
# File json/lib/json/add/set.rb, line 28
def as_json(*)
  {
    JSON.create_id => self.class.name,
    'a'            => to_a,
  }
end
to_json(*args) click to toggle source

Returns a JSON string representing self:

require 'json/add/set'
puts Set.new(%w/foo bar baz/).to_json

Output:

{"json_class":"Set","a":["foo","bar","baz"]}
# File json/lib/json/add/set.rb, line 44
def to_json(*args)
  as_json.to_json(*args)
