Json::reformat edge case

[TamasSzigeti]

Encountered an interesting edge case with the latest version.

We are generating a hash with uniqid() and testing it as part of a json with

…
                "id": "@string@.matchRegex('/[a-z0-9]{13}/')",
…

Now in certain string literals like 5e61188283825 when it goes through Json::reformat() it fails, as the json_decode returns float infinity – interprets it as an exponential number. And then json_encode returns false which doesn't satisfy the return type, so error is thrown.

Could you provide an example in sandbox https://php-matcher.norbert.tech/ so I can look into it?

[TamasSzigeti]

Sure:

Thank you for the quick response

Sorry for the long waiting time, it took me a while to find some time for php-matcher but it should be fine now.
This fix will be released in 5.0.0 version
