I believe something like this would work (excuse the comments normally not allowed in JSON):
{
paths: [
{
points: [
[10, 10], // 0
[90, 10], // 1
[90, 90], // 2
[10, 90] // 3
],
lines: [
[0, 1, 2, 3, 0] // connect point 0 to 1 to 2 to (...)
],
curves: {
0: [5, 15, 15, 5] // bezier control points for point 0 (x1, y1, x2, y2)
}
}
]
}
The downside (other than the bloat) would be when writing the code by hand, you'd have to keep track of the indices in the `points` array.
- mrmonkeyman 6y agoHow is this better?
- jcelerier 6y agoi'd much rather have [ { line: [10, 10] }, { cubic: [ 5, 15, 15, 5 ] }, ... ] or even [ ["line", 10, 10], ["cubic", ...], ... ] - anything as long as there's a way to stream the data (which is not possible with your format as you need to receive the whole object before being able to do anything).
- afiori 6y agothis makes me realize that xml maps relatively well to JSON array whose elements are object with 1 fields (or 2 fields) whose value is again a similar array.
