Consider support for serialization/deserialization of top level arrays about ig-json-parser HOT 7 OPEN

I stumbled into the same problem. The only way I found to generalize this easily is to use a "closure" although that's not satisfactory.
I guess a good way to make it possible would be either to generate a specific method for each Parser or to make them implement a kind of interface with the method parseFromJson().

In case someone needs it, I've created a small gist to help parse a JSON stream knowing its corresponding Java class: https://gist.github.com/ratamovic/c6497504cd8edf87ef38

this is a good start though be aware that this is not proguard safe.

Where I can find example how to use ParserHelper class?
I found the same problem to serialization/deserialization of top level arrays.

Looks like this issue has been abandoned. Any update here? It'd be hugely valuable to have. Can also try to dig in and PR a fix with a little guidance.

A pretty bad¹ but easy solution to whip up:
Parse {"dummy_key": YOUR_JSON_ARRAY}.

A slightly less bad solution, but somewhat more complicated solution:
Subclass JsonParser, inject in the tokens to create the same sequence of tokens as above.

The best solution is native support in the library, but I have a different day job now. :/

¹ it's bad because it involves allocating a chunk of memory roughly equal to the length of your string.
