A Go package to provide jsonl support.
Package is WIP and unstable.
JSON Lines is very useful when creating power-loss resistant applications. Without JSON Lines, you risk a power loss corrupting half of a write.
From my memory the Ubiquiti CloudKey Gen 1, lacking a battery, had a similar problem: configuration/database writes could corrupt the device such that it would not boot.
The use of JSONL as opposed to regular JSON solves this problem.
store, err := jsonl.OpenFile("config.jsonl")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
defer store.Close()
reader := json.NewDecoder(store)
writer := json.NewEncoder(store)
data := struct{
Key string
}{
Key: "value",
}
if err := writer.Encode(&data); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
if err := reader.Decode(&data); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
log.Printf("%+v\n", data)
