JsonGenerator class abstract interface

A streaming JSON writer that outputs JSON tokens sequentially.

The JsonGenerator provides structured, incremental JSON output for JetLeaf’s serialization engine. It supports object and array boundaries, primitive values, and raw JSON injection for custom serialization cases.

Overview

  • Produces syntactically valid JSON documents
  • Supports streaming or in-memory output
  • Typically used by ObjectMapper and custom serializers

Example

final generator = StringJsonGenerator();
generator.writeStartObject();
generator.writeFieldName('name');
generator.writeString('Alice');
generator.writeFieldName('age');
generator.writeNumber(30);
generator.writeEndObject();

print(generator.toString());
// Output: {"name":"Alice","age":30}
