defprotocol Jason.Encoder do
  @moduledoc """
  Protocol controlling how a value is encoded to JSON.

  ## Deriving

  The protocol allows leveraging the Elixir's `@derive` feature
  to simplify protocol implementation in trivial cases. Accepted
  options are:

    * `:only` - encodes only values of specified keys.
    * `:except` - encodes all struct fields except specified keys.

  By default all keys except the `:__struct__` key are encoded.

  ## Example

  Let's assume a presence of the following struct:

      defmodule Test do
        defstruct [:foo, :bar, :baz]
      end

  If we were to call `@derive Jason.Encoder` just before `defstruct`,
  an implementation similar to the following implementation would be generated:

      defimpl Jason.Encoder, for: Test do
        def encode(value, opts) do
          Jason.Encode.map(Map.take(value, [:foo, :bar, :baz]), opts)
        end
      end

  If we called `@derive {Jason.Encoder, only: [:foo]}`, an implementation
  similar to the following implementation would be generated:

      defimpl Jason.Encoder, for: Test do
        def encode(value, opts) do
          Jason.Encode.map(Map.take(value, [:foo]), opts)
        end
      end

  If we called `@derive {Jason.Encoder, except: [:foo]}`, an implementation
  similar to the following implementation would be generated:

      defimpl Jason.Encoder, for: Test do
        def encode(value, opts) do
          Jason.Encode.map(Map.take(value, [:bar, :baz]), opts)
        end
      end

  The actually generated implementations are more efficient computing some data
  during compilation similar to the macros from the `Jason.Helpers` module.

  ## Explicit implementation

  If you wish to implement the protocol fully yourself, it is advised to
  use functions from the `Jason.Encode` module to do the actual iodata
  generation - they are highly optimized and verified to always produce
  valid JSON.

  The argument `opts` is opaque - it can be passed to various functions in
  `Jason.Encode` (or to the protocol function itself) for encoding values to JSON.

      Jason.Encoder protocol must always be explicitly implemented.

      If you own the struct, you can derive the implementation specifying \
      which fields should be encoded to JSON:

          @derive {Jason.Encoder, only: [....]}
          defstruct ...

      It is also possible to encode all fields, although this should be \
      used carefully to avoid accidentally leaking private information \
      when new fields are added:

          @derive Jason.Encoder
