The format uses URI-safe syntax: parentheses for objects, exclamation-mark-prefixed arrays, single quotes for strings, and special tokens for literals. It expresses the same data model as JSON but produces strings that survive URI encoding with minimal bloat.\n\nThe package supports three output formats: full format with outer delimiters, object format with outer parentheses omitted, and array format with outer array markers omitted. A command-line tool converts between this format and JSON. Optional Pygments lexer support is available via an extra dependency.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and fills a specific niche: passing structured data through URIs compactly. Install it if you need to embed nested objects or arrays in query parameters without the verbosity of JSON or form encoding. Active repository maintenance supports continued reliability."},"id":"prison","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/prison","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/prison.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/prison/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-08-26","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"prison","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Rison encoder/decoder"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":10090260,"position":1481,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.1"}
