/** \class RooJSONFactoryWSTool
\ingroup roofit
 
When using `RooFit`, statistical models can be conveniently handled and
stored as a `RooWorkspace`. However, for the sake of interoperability
with other statistical frameworks, and also ease of manipulation, it
may be useful to store statistical models in text form.
 
The RooJSONFactoryWSTool is a helper class to achieve exactly this,
exporting to and importing from JSON and YML.
 
In order to import a workspace from a JSON file, you can do
 
~~~ {.py}
ws = ROOT.RooWorkspace("ws")
tool = ROOT.RooJSONFactoryWSTool(ws)
tool.importJSON("myjson.json")
~~~
 
Similarly, in order to export a workspace to a JSON file, you can do
 
~~~ {.py}
tool = ROOT.RooJSONFactoryWSTool(ws)
tool.exportJSON("myjson.json")
~~~
 
For more details, consult the tutorial <a
href="https://root.cern/doc/v626/rf515__hfJSON_8py.html">rf515_hfJSON</a>.
 
In order to import and export YML files, `ROOT` needs to be compiled
with the external dependency <a
href="https://github.com/biojppm/rapidyaml">RapidYAML</a>, which needs
to be installed on your system when building `ROOT`.
 
The RooJSONFactoryWSTool only knows about a limited set of classes for
import and export. If import or export of a class you're interested in
fails, you might need to add your own importer or exporter. Please
consult the <a
href="https://github.com/root-project/root/blob/master/roofit/hs3/README.md">README</a>
to learn how to do that.
 
You can always get a list of all the available importers and exporters by calling the following functions:
~~~ {.py}
ROOT.RooFit.JSONIO.printImporters()
ROOT.RooFit.JSONIO.printExporters()
ROOT.RooFit.JSONIO.printFactoryExpressions()
ROOT.RooFit.JSONIO.printExportKeys()
~~~
 
Alternatively, you can generate a LaTeX version of the available importers and exporters by calling
~~~ {.py}
tool = ROOT.RooJSONFactoryWSTool(ws)
tool.writedoc("hs3.tex")
~~~
