val el : t -> array -> array

el e arr is array arr wit e added at the end.

val el_if : bool -> (unit -> t) -> array -> array

el cond v arr is el (v ()) arr if cond is true and arr otherwise.

type obj

val obj : obj

obj is an empty object.

val obj_end : obj -> t

obj_end o is o as a generated JSON value.

val mem : string -> t -> obj -> obj

Derived generators

val strf : ('a, Stdlib.Format.formatter, unit, t) Stdlib.format4 -> 'a

strf fmt ... is a JSON string generated value formatted according to fmt.

val option : ('a -> t) -> 'a option -> t

option some o is o as a generated JSON value which is null if o is None and some v if o is some v.

val list : ('a -> t) -> 'a list -> t

list el l is l as a generated JSON array whose elements are generated using el.

val json : Json.t -> t

of_json v is the JSON value v as a generated value.

Output
