How do I convert a Ruby (.rb) file to JSON?

Paste your Ruby code into the input area or upload a .rb file. The tool parses Ruby hashes and arrays, converting symbols to strings and nil to null. Then download the generated .json file. You can also copy the output directly.

Why would I need to convert RB (Ruby) to JSON?

JSON is the standard data format for web APIs and JavaScript applications. Ruby data structures like hashes use syntax not natively understood outside Ruby. Converting RB to JSON ensures your data is universally usable, reduces parsing errors, and allows seamless integration with modern web services.

What happens to Ruby-specific data types during conversion?

Symbols are converted to JSON strings, nil becomes null, and hash rockets (=>) become colons. Nesting is preserved. Types like Time or BigDecimal are serialized to strings (e.g., ISO 8601 for Time). Non-serializable Ruby objects are flagged rather than silently dropped, ensuring transparency.

Is RB-TO-JSON free to use?

Yes, RB-TO-JSON on LetsConvert is 100% free with no registration or hidden fees required.

Are my uploaded files safe and secure?

Yes! File privacy and security are guaranteed. Basic conversions run locally in your browser. Files sent for server processing are automatically deleted within 1 hour.

Does this converter work on mobile phones and tablets?

Yes! RB-TO-JSON works seamlessly across iPhone, Android, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Linux browsers without installing any app.

Is there any software installation required?

No software or browser extension installation is needed. All conversions are performed directly online.
