Our testing so far indicates that ugorji/go/codec maintains backward
compatiblity with the version we are using now, for purposes of Nomad
serialization.
Using latest ugorji/go allows us to get back to using upstream library,
get get the optimizations benefits in RPC paths (including code
generation optimizations).
ugorji/go introduced two significant changes:
* time binary format in debb8e2d2e. Setting `h.BasicHandle.TimeNotBuiltin = true` restores old behavior
* ugorji/go started honoring `json` tag as well:
v1.1.4 is the latest but has a bug in handling RawString that's fixed in
d09a80c1e0
.
