JSON::HashValueConverter(Converter) - Crystal 1.6.2

# module JSON::HashValueConverter(Converter)

##
Overview

Converter to be used with `JSON::Serializable` to serialize the values of a `Hash(String, V)` with the custom converter.

    require "json"

    class TimestampHash
      include JSON::Serializable

      @[JSON::Field(converter: JSON::HashValueConverter(Time::EpochConverter))]
      property birthdays : Hash(String, Time)
    end

    timestamp = TimestampHash.from_json(%({"birthdays":{"foo":1459859781,"bar":1567628762}}))
    timestamp.birthdays # => {"foo" => 2016-04-05 12:36:21 UTC, "bar" => 2019-09-04 20:26:02 UTC)}
    timestamp.to_json   # => {"birthdays":{"foo":1459859781,"bar":1567628762}}

`JSON::HashValueConverter.new` should be used if the nested converter is also an instance instead of a type.

    require "json"

    class TimestampHash
      include JSON::Serializable

      @[JSON::Field(converter: JSON::HashValueConverter.new(Time::Format.new("%b %-d, %Y")))]
      property birthdays : Hash(String, Time)
    end

    timestamp = TimestampHash.from_json(%({"birthdays":{"foo":"Apr 5, 2016","bar":"Sep 4, 2019"}}))
    timestamp.birthdays # => {"foo" => 2016-04-05 00:00:00 UTC, "bar" => 2019-09-04 00:00:00 UTC)}
    timestamp.to_json   # => {"birthdays":{"foo":"Apr 5, 2016","bar":"Sep 4, 2019"}}

This implies that `JSON::HashValueConverter(T)` and `JSON::HashValueConverter(T.class).new(T)` perform the same serializations.
