A .Net library to handle conversions from and to JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) strings flavoured for the Unity3D engine.

Feature log

UnityEngine types

These already work out of the box

JsonMapper.ToJson( AnimationCurve.EaseInOut(0,0,1,1) );

Further adaptions allow to pass UnityEngine types directly to the mapper:

JsonMapper.ToJson( Vector2.zero ); // Output { "x" : 0, "y" : 0 }
JsonMapper.ToJson( Vector3.one );  // Output { "x" : 1, "y" : 1, "z" : 1 }
JsonMapper.ToJson( Vector4.one );  // Output { "x" : 1, "y" : 1, "z" : 1, "w" : 1 }
JsonMapper.ToJson( Quaternion.identity );  // Output { "x" : 0, "y" : 0, "z" : 0, "w" : 0 }
JsonMapper.ToJson( Matrix4x4.zero );  // Output { "m33" : 0, .. }
JsonMapper.ToJson( Color.green );  // Output { "r" : 0, "g" : 1, "b" : 0, "a" : 1 }

JsonMapper.ToJson( Ray );  // Output { "origin" : {V3}, "direction" : {V3} }
JsonMapper.ToJson( RaycastHit );  // Output { .. }

Of course reading back in also works:

var v2 = JsonMapper.ToObject<Vector2>( "{\"x\":0,\"y\":0}" ); 
var v3 = JsonMapper.ToObject<Vector3>( "{\"x\":0,\"y\":0,\"z\":1}" ); 
..

float (Single) and long (Int64) types
