lon 1.0.0

Compact, canonical, lossless JSON codec for AI-first data exchange with self-describing record tables.

Changelog

1.0.0 - 2026-08-02

• Publish the canonical Language Object Notation v1 format and Dart codec.
• Add lossless JSON text conversion that preserves member order, duplicate members, string code units, and number lexemes.
• Add JSON-compatible Dart value encoding and decoding.
• Add self-describing array record tables with deterministic compactness selection.
• Add strict ambiguity, Unicode visibility, malformed input, and trailing content checks.
• Add configurable nesting, expansion, input, and output resource limits.
• Add the lon encode and lon decode command-line interface.
• Add conformance fixtures, JSONTestSuite coverage, generated round trips, and security regression tests.
• Add a reproducible LON, Compact JSON, TOON, YAML, and Pretty JSON token benchmark.
• Replace tagged and counted table headers with the minimal [SCHEMA;ROW;ROW] array form; require at least two rows and leaf values, and keep keyed and varying object data explicit for zero-prompt readability.
• Add exhaustive UTF-16 value and member-name coverage, grammar-conflict table-schema cases, strict chunked UTF-8 transport tests, and explicit network framing and embedding rules.
• Gate pushes and pull requests on Dart 3.3 and stable formatting, analysis, tests, and publish validation; run benchmarks on every push and retain SHA-named reports for 30 days.
• Add English and Simplified Chinese documentation and scalable project branding.
