drupal_to_js() and drupal_json() are very confusing function names. I suggest we do the following:

  • drupal_to_js() is just a wrapper around PHP json_encode(), let's rename it drupal_json_encode(), as we do elsewhere
  • drupal_json() outputs a PHP datastructure after converting it to JSON, let's rename it drupal_output_json()

The names look logical and much better. i can't really test the patch because i don't have the hardware to do so at the moment, but i'm giving it my +1. I've read through the code and it *looks* right.

Why starts drupal_output_json with output, but drupal_json_encode starts with json, after the drupal.

Shouldn't be both functions be named drupal_json_%

I just rewrote the patch.

Tests failed for whatever reason :-/

Due to the new function names, some PHPDoc exceeds 80 chars in that patch.

Looks really good and +1 for the name changes to help make it more clear.

yeah, looks ready to fly.

Too bad that we don't support renderable arrays for json. Because, if we would, my first guess was that we'd like to rename drupal_json_output() to drupal_render_json() - going hand in hand with drupal_render_page()... :) However, since these are simple arrays currently, that doesn't make sense. Anyway, just ignore this paragraph ;)

OK, that looks like a nice clean-up. Committed to CVS HEAD. Thanks all.

Let's document this in the upgrade instructions and mark as 'fixed' after.
