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.
