+# IsJsonString Validator
+
+`Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString` allows you to validate whether a given value is a string that will be successfully decoded by `json_decode`.
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+```php
+$validator = new Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString();
+$input = '{"some":"json"}';
+
+if ($validator->isValid($input)) {
+    // $input can be successfully decoded
+} else {
+    // $input is not a valid JSON string
+}
+```
+
+## Restricting Acceptable JSON types
+
+`json_decode` accepts numeric strings representing integers and floating point numbers, booleans, arrays and objects.
+You can restrict what is considered valid input using the `allow` option of the validator.
+
+```php
+use Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString;
+
+$validator = new IsJsonString([
+    'allow' => IsJsonString::ALLOW_ALL ^ IsJsonString::ALLOW_BOOL,
+]);
+
+$validator->isValid('true'); // false
+```
+
+The `allow` option is a bit mask of the `ALLOW_*` constants in `IsJsonString`:
+
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_INT` - Accept numeric such as "1"
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_FLOAT` - Accept numeric strings such as "1.234"
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_BOOL` - Accept "true" and "false"
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_ARRAY` - Accept JSON arrays such as `["One", "Two"]`
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_OBJECT` - Accept JSON objects such as `{"Some":"Object"}`
+- `IsJsonString::ALLOW_ALL` - A convenience constant allowing all of the above _(Also the default)_.
+
+The `allow` option also has a companion setter method `setAllow`. For example, to only accept arrays and objects:
+
+```php
+use Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString;
+
+$validator = new IsJsonString();
+$validator->setAllow(IsJsonString::ALLOW_ARRAY | IsJsonString::ALLOW_OBJECT);
+$validator->isValid("1.234"); // false
+```
+
+## Restricting Max Object or Array Nesting Level
+
+If you wish to restrict the nesting level of arrays and objects that are considered valid, the validator accepts a `maxDepth` option. The default value of this option is `512` - the same default value as `json_decode`.
+
+```php
+$validator = new Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString(['maxDepth' => 2]);
+$validator->isValid('{"nested": {"object: "here"}}'); // false
+```
+
+Again, the max nesting level allowed has a companion setter method:
+
+```php
+$validator = new Laminas\Validator\IsJsonString();
+$validator->setMaxDepth(10);
+```
