The current published version of argonaut is 6.2.2 and is available on https://oss.sonatype.org.

Depending on argonaut with sbt, stable:

"io.argonaut" %% "argonaut" % "6.2.2"     

"io.argonaut" %% "argonaut-scalaz" % "6.2.2"  

"io.argonaut" %% "argonaut-monocle" % "6.2.2"  

"io.argonaut" %% "argonaut-cats" % "6.2.2"  

Then checkout the quickstart, the detailed documention and examples, and the scaladocs.

The 6.2.x release supports scala 2.10.*, 2.11.* and 2.12.* with scalaz 7.2.*.

All minor releases (from 6.0 onwards) are binary compatible, i.e. 6.1.x stream are drop in replacements, and the same will be true for 6.2.x, but going from 6.1 to 6.2 _may_ require changes or recompilation.

Release Notes: [6.0] [6.0.1] [6.0.2] [6.0.3] [6.0.4] [6.1-M1] [6.1-M2] [6.1-M3] [6.1-M4] [6.1-M5] [6.1-M6] [6.1] [6.2-M1] [6.2]

Concise Codec Definitions #

case class Person(name: String, age: Int, things: List[String])

implicit def PersonCodecJson =
  casecodec3(Person.apply, Person.unapply)("name", "age", "things")

Rich library for Parsing, Printing, Conversion and Manipulation #

val person =
    Person("Bam Bam", 2, List("club"))

val json: Json =
    person.asJson

val prettyprinted: String =
    json.spaces2

val parsed: Option[Person] =
    prettyprinted.decodeOption[Person]

val cursor =
    json.hcursor --\ "field" --\ "nested" --\ "deep" := "new value"

val history =
    cursor.history

val updated =
