There far too many JSON alternatives which support binary data:
- http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_Buffers (Schema is required)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MessagePack (Schema is optional)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBOR
- http://bjson.org/
- https://github.com/FasterXML/smile-format-specification
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSON
AFAIK there is not sane default up to now.
I know that I can encode/decode data in base64 by hand. But I would like to avoid this. I want a data format, not a work-around.
I guess in ten years we will know who has won the race.
Which JSON alternative which supports binary data the most wide spread today?
Please provide a link to your source of information. If you guess, then please state this.
