=head1 NAME

Bubblegum::Wrapper::Json - Bubblegum Wrapper around JSON Serialization

=head1 VERSION

version 0.44

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bubblegum;

    my $data = {1..3,{4,{5,6,7,{8,9,10,11}}}};

    my $string  = $data->json->encode;
    my $hashref = $string->json->decode;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

L<Bubblegum::Wrapper::Json> is a Bubblegum wrapper which provides the ability to
endcode/decode JSON data structures. It is not necessary to use this module as
it is loaded automatically by the L<Bubblegum> class. B<Note>, in order to use
this wrapper you will need to have L<JSON::Tiny> installed which is not a
required Bubblegum dependency and should have been installed separately.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 decode

The decode method deserializes the stringified JSON structure using the
L<JSON::Tiny> module.

=head2 encode

The encode method serializes the Perl data structure using the L<JSON::Tiny>
module.
