About:
Json-Fortran is a Fortran 2008 library for parsing and generating JSON files. It provides an object-oriented API that allows developers to easily navigate and manipulate JSON data structures within Fortran applications. This library enables seamless interoperability between Fortran code and modern web services or configuration files.
Key Features:
  • Object-oriented API for intuitive JSON manipulation
  • Supports both reading (parsing) and writing (generating) JSON data
  • Pure Fortran 2008 implementation with no external dependencies
  • Robust error handling and detailed error reporting
Use Cases:
  • Parsing configuration files in scientific computing applications
  • Interfacing Fortran codes with RESTful web APIs that return JSON
  • Generating structured data reports for data analysis pipelines
Alternatives:
  • jsonlab – Primarily a MATLAB/Octave library, whereas json-fortran is native to Fortran
  • cJSON – C-based library requiring C-Fortran interoperability bindings, while json-fortran is pure Fortran
