Open Source Objective C JSON Software

Groot provides a simple way of serializing Core Data object graphs from or into JSON. It uses annotations in the Core Data model to perform the serialization.

JSONModel is an Objective-C library that simplifies the parsing and serialization of JSON data into strongly-typed model objects. It automatically maps JSON to Objective-C classes and supports validation, optional properties, and nested models. JSONModel helps streamline networked data handling in iOS and macOS apps.

GCDWebServer is a modern and lightweight GCD based HTTP 1.1 server designed to be embedded in iOS, macOS & tvOS apps. Elegant and easy to use architecture with only 4 core classes: server, connection, request and response. Well designed API with fully documented headers for easy integration and customization. Entirely built with an event-driven design using Grand Central Dispatch for best performance and concurrency. No dependencies on third-party source code. Parser for web forms submitted using "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" or "multipart/form-data" encodings (including file uploads). Allow implementation of fully asynchronous handlers of incoming HTTP requests. Minimize memory usage with disk streaming of large HTTP request or response bodies. Automatically handle transitions between foreground, background and suspended modes in iOS apps. Full support for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Chunk-based JSON parsing and generation in Objective-C. SBJson's number one feature is stream/chunk-based operation. Feed the parser one or more chunks of UTF8-encoded data and it will call a block you provide with each root-level document or array. Or, optionally, for each top-level entry in each root-level array. With this you can reduce the apparent latency for each download/parse cycle of documents over a slow connection. You can start parsing and return chunks of the parsed document before the full document has downloaded. You can also parse massive documents bit by bit so you don't have to keep them all in memory.
