json.stringify

Serializes a Lua object into a JSON string.

It supports the following types: boolean, nil, number, string, table

The remaining Lua types will generate an error: function, lightuserdata, thread, userdata

By default, numbers are encoded with 14 significant digits. Refer to json.encode_number_precision for details.

!!!warning This function will successfully encode/decode binary strings, but this is technically not supported by JSON and may not be compatible with other JSON libraries. To ensure the output is valid JSON, applications should ensure all Lua strings passed to json.stringify are UTF-8. Base64 is commonly used to encode binary data as the most efficient encoding under UTF-8 can only reduce the encoded size by a further ~8%. !!!
