pysimdjson#
Python bindings for the simdjson project, a SIMD-accelerated JSON parser. If SIMD instructions are unavailable a fallback parser is used, making pysimdjson safe to use anywhere.
Bindings are currently tested on OS X, Linux, and Windows for Python version 3.9 to 3.12.
Installation#
If binary wheels are available for your platform, you can install from pip with no further requirements:
pip install pysimdjson
Binary wheels are available for the following:

When binary wheels are not available, a C++11 (or better) compiler is required when installing in order to build the underlying simdjson library.
If you would prefer to always install pysimdjson from source even when pre-compiled binaries are available (to take advantage of a newer compiler for example), use:
pip install pysimdjson --no-binary :all:
Packages
pysimdjson is also available from unofficial packages contributed by the community. You can currently get it from Gentoo and conda-forge. Note these may lag behind in releases.
