I got tired of dealing with state by passing parameters and return values, and made an OO-approach (for the parser-part). It became much nicer. It also made it more easy to handle errors, so the library now says stuff like NSE: Json:Syntax error near pos 2: Expected '"', got 'a' input: {a":1} I did not go all the way with a tokenizing lexer, a grammar etc - the grammar is part of the parser flow, but otherwise I have skipped all %b{} and such 'shortcuts' and parse character by character.The new design looks really good. It has worked well in my testing. I want you to change the names of the fromJson and toJson functions to "parse" and "generate" respectively. The camelcase names don't fit with the style of other libraries, and there's no need to have "json" twice in calls like json.fromJson and json.fromJson.
First, thanks! I've committed the json library and the two CouchDB scripts. I'm very happy with how the json library has turned out. I renamed couchdb-get-stats to just couchdb-stats. I'm trying to avoid superfluous "get" in script names when it's clear they are just getting something. After committing, I made some minor changes to json.lua, just some code style things that I thought of. The only functional change I made was a fix to what I think was a little bug: The sequence \\ was being unescaped into the two bytes \\, instead of the one byte \.
