*object_hook* is an optional function that will be called with the result of
any object literal decoded (a :class:`dict`). The return value of
*object_hook* will be used instead of the :class:`dict`. This feature can be used

class hinting).

Added support for *object_pairs_hook*.

*parse_float*, if specified, will be called with the string of every JSON
float to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to ``float(num_str)``.
This can be used to use another datatype or parser for JSON floats
(e.g. :class:`decimal.Decimal`).

.. versionchanged:: 3.11
The default *parse_int* of :func:`int` now limits the maximum length of
the integer string via the interpreter's :ref:`integer string
conversion length limitation <int_max_str_digits>` to help avoid denial
of service attacks.

*parse_constant*, if specified, will be called with one of the following
strings: ``'-Infinity'``, ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``.
This can be used to raise an exception if invalid JSON numbers
are encountered.
*parse_constant* is an optional function that will be called with one of the
following strings: ``'-Infinity'``, ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``. This can be

*parse_constant* doesn't get called on 'null', 'true', 'false' anymore.
