Serialize with JsonConverters

This sample uses a Argon.JsonConverter to customize how JSON is serialized.

var stringComparisons = new List<StringComparison>
{
    StringComparison.CurrentCulture,
    StringComparison.Ordinal
};

var jsonWithoutConverter = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(stringComparisons);

Console.WriteLine(jsonWithoutConverter);
// [0,4]

var jsonWithConverter = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(stringComparisons, new StringEnumConverter());

Console.WriteLine(jsonWithConverter);
// ["CurrentCulture","Ordinal"]

var newStringComparsons = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<StringComparison>>(
    jsonWithConverter,
    new StringEnumConverter());

Console.WriteLine(string.Join(", ", newStringComparsons.Select(_ => _.ToString()).ToArray()));
// CurrentCulture, Ordinal
