Allow options to JSON decoder

[Søren Hilmer]

Hi

I am using Jason as decoder in my system both directly and through other libraries, one being Postgrex.

My problem is that Postgrex only allows decoding json and jsonb columns with keys being strings.
My other libraries decodes keys as atoms, so when I have decoded json as a map in a function, I have to know if it came from the database or some other source, which is a pain.

So I propose that it can be configured in Postgrex to use atoms as keys.
Jason at least allows this in it's decode function with option: keys: :atoms.

Cheers

The best way is to define your own module, that wraps Jason, and set that as the encoder/decoder. :)

Ahh, of course, nice solution. I was about to fork Postgrex :-)
Thank you
