libjson-parse-perl binary package in Ubuntu Focal amd64

 JSON::Parse is a module for parsing JSON.
 .
 It offers the function parse_json(), which takes a string containing JSON,
 and returns an equivalent Perl structure. It also offers validation of JSON
 via valid_json(), which returns true or false depending on whether the JSON
 is correct or not, and assert_valid_json(), which produces a descriptive
 fatal error if the JSON is invalid. A function json_file_to_perl() reads JSON
 from a file, and there is a safer version of parse_json() called
 parse_json_safe() which doesn't throw exceptions. For special cases of
 parsing, there are also methods new() and run(), which create a JSON parsing
 object and run it on text.
 .
 JSON::Parse accepts only UTF-8 as input.
