App::Serializer::OneLine - Interface for serialization and deserialization
use App;
$context = App->context();
$serializer = $context->service("Serializer"); # or ...
$serializer = $context->serializer();
$data = {
an => 'arbitrary',
collection => [ 'of', 'data', ],
of => {
arbitrary => 'depth',
},
};
$perl = $serializer->serialize($data);
$data = $serializer->deserialize($perl);
print $serializer->dump($data), "\n";
A Serializer allows you to serialize a structure of data of arbitrary depth to a scalar and deserialize it back to the structure.
The OneLine serializer uses a simplified perl data structure syntax as the serialized form of the data. It is meant for parsing human-entered data and writing human-readable data. (Sometimes, the one line does get pretty long.)
