is there a way to parse JSON in a simple way without pulling in gson/jackson or other libs?

[Nikky]

Try klaxon, it's pure kotlin (I think)

[Bernhard]

that's a lib as well, right?

[Bernhard]

currently writing a gradle task in buildSrc and I'd like to avoid pulling in deps

[Nikky]

Ahh well.. Then you could still look at it, after all its json parsing in kotlin, there gotta be something to learn

[Nikky]

I thought you were trying to avoid jvm libs at first

[david-wg2]

parsing json isn't trivial, so you'll probably want to use a library

Groovy has something build-in: http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/gapi/groovy/json/JsonSlurper.html

moshi is nice and simple. it’s tiny as well.

if it's gradle task I would stick to groovy like @carkral said

[Bernhard]
