JSON to Rust Struct Converter

Convert JSON objects into strongly-typed Rust Struct definitions and data models.

To convert JSON to Rust Struct, paste your JSON payload above and specify the root type name. The generator creates clean, idiomatic Rust Struct code definitions instantly in your browser without uploading your JSON data to external servers.

From a JSON sample to a Rust struct

The struct derives Serialize and Deserialize, with a #[serde(rename = "...")] on each field mapping the snake_case Rust name back to the original key. Serde generates the implementation at compile time, so nothing here costs anything at runtime beyond the parse itself.

Tightening the generated struct

  • Collapse the renames. If every key differs from the Rust name only by case, a single #[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")] on the struct replaces every per-field attribute.
  • Optional fields. Option<T> covers an explicit null, and adding #[serde(default)] also covers a key that is absent entirely. Without default, a missing key is a deserialisation error rather than a None.
  • Integer width. Numbers infer as i64 and f64. Narrow to u32 or u16 when the API documents a range, remembering that serde rejects a negative value for an unsigned type rather than wrapping it.
  • Ownership. Fields come out as owned String. Borrowing with &str avoids the allocation but ties the struct to the lifetime of the input buffer, which pays off only when you parse a great deal and discard it quickly.
  • A JSON null with nothing else to go on infers as a placeholder option type rather than an answer. Replace it once you know the real type.

The same payload for other backends: JSON to Go and JSON to TypeScript.
