why use github.com/json-iterator/go

[robscc]

i have occurred an error in using json-iterator
json-iterator/go#129

[tboerger]

We have integrated it because it's faster than the stdlib

[taowen]

sorry about the bug, I will fix it as soon as possible. Test coverage is our recent focus.

[taowen]

should be fixed now, you need to use the latest master branch. The map key is read from the buffer without copy, which caused this bug.

fix from json-iterator/go@bd4364a Thanks @taowen

[javierprovecho]

awesome, thanks @taowen 😄

[taowen]

@javierprovecho @appleboy thanks for choosing jsoniter. There are bugs for sure, I can only promise to fix them as soon as I can.

jsoniter also does not seem to work on Google App Engine (use of unsafe). One option may be to enable/disable this via build tags.

[taowen]

jsoniter is based on unsafe.Pointer which seems not allowed by GAE. build tags is an option.

[codedance]

Wow. Nice work with jumping on this so quick. I think refactoring to enable via a built-tag is the right idea. It allows evolution and innovation, while reducing the risk by giving it time to bake.
