The alias is defined using Python's `typing` module and supports recursive self-reference, allowing you to annotate variables and function parameters that hold JSON-compatible data.\n\nThe package exists because this type alias is useful across multiple projects but verbose enough to be tedious to redefine. It requires mypy >= 0.981 with the --enable-recursive-aliases flag to type-check correctly. The implementation is minimal\u2014just a few lines of type definition\u2014and carries no runtime dependencies, making it a zero-cost addition to your type-checking workflow.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you use type hints and work with JSON data. The package is stable, has no dependencies, and solves a genuine typing problem. Dormant maintenance is not a concern for a minimal, self-contained type alias. Verify mypy version and configuration requirements before adopting in strict type-checking environments."},"id":"jsonalias","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jsonalias","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jsonalias.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/jsonalias/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-10-30","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"jsonalias","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A microlibrary that defines a Json type alias for Python."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1380947,"position":3981,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.2"}
