Single header string library for microcontrollers adds printf and JSON support
str is a single header string library for microcontrollers implements the following routines:
*printf() – implements printf() family of functions that can print standard specifiers (including floating point %f and %g) as well as non-standard %m and %M specifiers that allow custom formatting like JSON, hex, base64
json_get() – find element in a JSON string
json_get_num() – fetch numeric value from a JSON string
json_get_bool() – fetch boolean value from a JSON string
json_get_str() – fetch string value from a JSON string
xhexdump() – print hex dump of the given memory buffer
Features
Ideal for implementing serial protocols, debug logging, JSON data exchange
Source code is both ISO C and ISO C++ compliant
Tiny size: see the Footprint section below for exact numbers
*printf() supports all major format specifiers, width, precition and alignment
*printf() supports floating point %f and %g specifiers by default
*printf() Supports non-standard %M,%m specifiers which allows for custom formats
Can print to anything: to a memory buffer, file, socket, UART, etc
Extensively tested using VC98, VC22, ARM GCC, AVR GCC, x86 GCC, Clang

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
