What?

The current parser is great. It would also be great to have a serializer/deserializer in the tone of json_encode/json_decode with options. If course this would only work consistently for a subset and would not be able to bring a full specs KDL doc into a PHP structure/object/arrays and then back without loosing/discarding data (e.g comments)

Since the logic/nodes etc (in my not too well versed in KDL opinion) could be seen as similar to an XML document serialization (with better typed data, etc), maybe some type of decorator type of processing (again going back to you can do that in PHP from XML to JSON) could work?

Just wondering if this is something others may want or the parse suffices the need. Thanks!

Hi! Since this was originally written, KDL has stabilized to 1.0.0. No further changes should be made to spec so it should be safe to update + finalize kdl-php to the 1.0 spec!

Please let me know if you have any questions or if there's anything I can do to help!

KDL 2.0.0-draft.3 is now generally available (kdl-org/kdl#286), and with it, we've decided to encourage existing implementations to start working towards 2.0 support and send feedback and suggestions for anything you might run into, so I'm making this tracking issue. :)
