YellowMan.Data 2.0.1

SINCE VERSION 2.0.0, THE SYNTAX HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED, SO THE PREVIOUS VERSIONS ARE NO LONGER RELEVANT!

Greetings from YellowMan! I created this serializer as a specific solution for those who, for some reason, are not suitable for others. My code is not a reference, so I ask you not to be surprised by what you have written. I would be glad to have your feedback 😃

News

• Additional edits have been introduced.
• Temporarily added the method: "Serializer.Deserialize(path, itemName, ref object)".

Serialize

We have a data class.

class Data
{
    public int Int = 1;
    public float Float = 1.01F;
    public double Double = 1.0001D;
    public decimal Decimal = 1.00000001M;
    public char Char = 'C';
    public string String = "String";
    public bool Bool = true;
    public (int, string) Tuple = (1, "String");
    public int[] Array = new int[] { 1, 2};
    public int[,,,] MultiArray = new int[1, 1, 1, 1];
    public List<int> List = new List<int>() { 1, 2 };
    public Dictionary<int, string> Dictionary = new Dictionary<int, string>() { { 1, "StringOne" }, { 2, "StringTwo" } };
    public Vector2 Vector2 = new Vector2(1, 1);
    public DateTime DateTime = new DateTime(2000, 1, 1);
    public string Null = null;
}

This is what the serialization process looks like:

Data data = new Data();

string json = Serializer.Serialize("data", "Data", data);

// The file "data.json"
//
// Data
// {
//   "System.Int32.Int": 1,
//   "System.Single.Float": 1.01F,
//   "System.Double.Double": 1.0001D,
//   "System.Decimal.Decimal": 1.00000001M,
//   "System.Char.Char": 'C',
//   "System.String.String": "String",
//   "System.Boolean.Bool": True,
//   "System.ValueTuple`2[System.Int32,System.String].Tuple": [
//      "System.Int32.Item1": 1,
//      "System.String.Item2": "String"
//   ],
//   "System.Int32[].Array": [
//      "System.Int32.Item1": 1,
//      "System.Int32.Item2": 2
//   ],
//   "System.Int32[,,,].MultiArray": [
//      "System.Int32.Item1": [
//         "System.Int32.Item1": [
//            "System.Int32.Item1": [
//               "System.Int32.Item1": 0
//            ]
//         ]
//      ]
//   ],
//   "System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Int32].List": [
//      "System.Int32.Item1": 1,
//      "System.Int32.Item2": 2
//   ],
//   "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String].Dictionary": [
//      "System.Int32.Keys": [
//         "System.Int32.Key1": 1,
//         "System.Int32.Key2": 2
//      ],
//      "System.String.Values": [
//         "System.String.Value1": "StringOne",
//         "System.String.Value2": "StringTwo"
//      ]
//   ],
//   "System.Numerics.Vector2.Vector2": {
//      "System.Single.X": 1F,
//      "System.Single.Y": 1F
//   },
//   "System.DateTime.DateTime": "01.01.2000 0:00:00",
//   "System.String.Null": null
// }

The standard format: "Serializer.Serialize(path, itemName, item)". But there is also this: "Serializer.Serialize(path, itemName, item, mode)". By default, the mode is enabled during serialization: "SerializationMode.NotUseAttribute". But for additional correction, you can use the attributes: "[Save]" and "[Skip]", and their modes. Next is a small table with an example of using the mode and attribute.

In a serializable class:

In an instance of the class:

Deserialize

Data data = Serializer.Deserialize<Data>("data", "Data");

Or

Data data = new Data();
object dataObject = data; 
Serializer.Deserialize("data", "Data", ref dataObject);

Sterilize anything (almost)! P.S. I hope there are no bugs :p
