=head1 NAME

Config::Model::Backend::Json - Read and write config as a JSON data structure

=head1 VERSION

version 2.101

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Config::Model ;
 use Data::Dumper ;

 # define configuration tree object
 my $model = Config::Model->new ;
 $model ->create_config_class (
    name => "MyClass",
    element => [
        [qw/foo bar/] => {
            type => 'leaf',
            value_type => 'string'
        },
        baz => {
            type => 'hash',
            index_type => 'string' ,
            cargo => {
                type => 'leaf',
                value_type => 'string',
            },
        },
    ],
  read_config  => [
                    { backend => 'Json' ,
                      config_dir => '/tmp',
                      file  => 'foo.json',
                      auto_create => 1,
                    }
                  ],
 ) ;

 my $inst = $model->instance(root_class_name => 'MyClass' );

 my $root = $inst->config_root ;

 my $steps = 'foo=yada bar="bla bla" baz:en=hello
             baz:fr=bonjour baz:hr="dobar dan"';
 $root->load( steps => $steps ) ;
 $inst->write_back ;

Now, C</tmp/foo.yml> contains:

 {
   "bar" : "bla bla",
   "foo" : "yada",
   "baz" : {
      "hr" : "dobar dan",
      "en" : "hello",
      "fr" : "bonjour"
   }
 }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is used directly by L<Config::Model> to read or write the
content of a configuration tree written with Json syntax in
C<Config::Model> configuration tree.

Note that undefined values are skipped for list element. I.e. if a
list element contains C<('a',undef,'b')>, the data structure only
contains C<'a','b'>.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 new ( node => $node_obj, name => 'Json' ) ;

Inherited from L<Config::Model::Backend::Any>. The constructor is
called by L<Config::Model::BackendMgr>.

=head2 read ( io_handle => ... )

Of all parameters passed to this read call-back, only C<io_handle> is
used. This parameter must be an L<IO::File> object already opened for
read.

It can also be undef. In which case C<read()> returns 0.

When a file is read,  C<read()> returns 1.

=head2 write ( io_handle => ... )

Of all parameters passed to this write call-back, only C<io_handle> is
used. This parameter must be L<IO::File> object already opened for
write.

C<write()> returns 1.
