I have a complex Clojure data structure that I would like to serialize - basically the entire current game state for an online game I am developing so that I can implement save game files.

My requirements are:

  • Some form of human-readable text format (I'd probably prefer s-expressions, JSON and XML in that order but open to others)
  • Support all the usual Clojure data structures, keywords and primitives
  • Ability to provide custom serialization / deserialization functions for custom java classes, defrecords etc. (this is important because I need to do something like Java's readResolve in several cases)
  • Good performance is a nice-to-have

Any good recommendations?
