Package with serialization helpers for System.Text.Json. These packages contain default settings for working with JSON serialization in the FsharpToolbox.

Use the FsharpToolbox default JSON serialization by adding the FsharpToolbox.Pkg.Serialization, opening the FsharpToolbox.Pkg.Serialization.Json module and calling these helper functions:

• Serializer.jsonSerialize
• Serializer.jsonDeserialize
• Serializer.tryDeserialize<'T>

The deserialization functions accept a DeserializeSettings that controls how lenient the deserializer should be, whether it allows a string to be parsed into an number field and vice versa.

Configure Giraffe to use the FsharpToolbox default serialization by adding either the FsharpToolbox.Pkg.Serialization.Giraffe6 package to your Giraffe project and in your setup, call the AddGiraffeJsonSerialization method (you can optionally pass a DeserializeSettingsto control whether certain conversions should be allowed, DeserializeSettings.Default is the default):

open FsharpToolbox.Pkg.Serialization.Giraffe

let configureServices _context (services : IServiceCollection) (configuration : IConfiguration) =
    services
        .AddGiraffe()
        .AddGiraffeJsonSerialization(DeserializeSettings.Default)
