serde_v8
Author: Aaron O'Mullan aaron.omullan@gmail.com
Serde support for encoding/decoding (rusty_)v8 values.
Broadly serde_v8 aims to provide an expressive but ~maximally efficient
encoding layer to biject rust & v8/js values. It's a core component of deno's
op-layer and is used to encode/decode all non-buffer values.
Original issue: denoland/deno#9540
Quickstart
serde_v8 fits naturally into the serde ecosystem, so if you've already used
serde or serde_json, serde_v8's API should be very familiar.
serde_v8 exposes two key-functions:
to_v8: mapsrust->v8, similar toserde_json::to_string, ...from_v8: mapsv8->rust, similar toserde_json::from_str, ...
Best practices
Whilst serde_v8 is compatible with serde_json::Value it's important to keep
in mind that serde_json::Value is essentially a loosely-typed value (think
nested HashMaps), so when writing ops we recommend directly using rust
structs/tuples or primitives, since mapping to serde_json::Value will add
extra overhead and result in slower ops.
I also recommend avoiding unecessary "wrappers", if your op takes a single-keyed struct, consider unwrapping that as a plain value unless you plan to add fields in the near-future.
Instead of returning "nothing" via Ok(json!({})), change your return type to
rust's unit type () and returning Ok(()), serde_v8 will efficiently encode
that as a JS null.
Advanced features
If you need to mix rust & v8 values in structs/tuples, you can use the special
serde_v8::Value type, which will passthrough the original v8 value untouched
when encoding/decoding.
TODO
- Experiment with KeyCache to optimize struct keys
- Experiment with external v8 strings
- Explore using json-stringifier.cc's fast-paths for arrays
- Improve tests to test parity with
serde_json(should be mostly interchangeable) - Consider a
Payloadtype that's deserializable by itself (holds scope & value) - Ensure we return errors instead of panicking on
.unwrap()s
