// Example how to interop with JSON.
// Test loading some JSON, converting it to a binary FlatBuffer and back again.
// First read the schema and JSON data.

json := read_file("monsterdata.json", true)

// Parse JSON to binary:
fb, err1 := flatbuffers_json_to_binary(schema, json, [])
assert not err1
// Access one field in it, just to check:
let monster = MyGame_Sample_GetRootAsMonster(fb)
assert monster.name == "Orc"
// Convert binary back to JSON:
json2, err2 := flatbuffers_binary_to_json(schema, fb, [])
assert not err2
// The generated JSON should be exactly equal to the original!
assert json == json2
// Print what we've been converting for good measure:
