=head1 NAME

JSON::ON - javascript object notation object notator

=head1 SYNOPSIS

This module serializes and deserializes blessed references with JSON.

  use JSON::ON;

  my $stuff = {whatever => What::Ever->new};
  my $j = JSON::ON->new;
  my $enc = $j->encode($stuff);

  # elsewhere...
  my $j = JSON::ON->new;
  my $dec = $j->decode($enc);
  $dec->{whatever}->amethod;

=head2 Making Sausage

The encode() method installs a local UNIVERSAL::TO_JSON() which simply
un-blesses HASH, ARRAY, and SCALAR references.  Similarly, the decoding
has a hook which simply blesses them back into their class.  This leaves
edge cases for inside-out objects and code references, but ...

=head2 Implementation

A special token is embedded in the JSON whenever an object appears (it is ugly, but highly unlikely to appear in a regular JSON document.)

This is intended more as an opaque transport mechanism than as
human-readable JSON.

=head1 Constructor

=head2 new

  my $j = JSON::ON->new(%args);

=over

=item j

Optional.  The JSON object.

=item module_handler

Optional.  A callback for handling modules found in decode().  The
default is to warn if a module has no VERSION method (which is a good
indicator that it is not loaded.)  Setting this to undef() will ignore
all modules.

  module_handler => sub {
    foreach my $module (@_) {
      unless($module->can("VERSION")) {
        (my $pm = $module) =~ s{::}{/}g;
        eval {require "$pm.pm"};
        die $@ if($@ and $@ !~ m/^Can't locate $pm in \@INC /);
      }
    }
  },
