        *encoding* determines the encoding used to interpret any
        :class:`str` objects decoded by this instance (``'utf-8'`` by
        default).  It has no effect when decoding :class:`unicode` objects.

        Note that currently only encodings that are a superset of ASCII work,
        strings of other encodings should be passed in as :class:`unicode`.

        *object_hook*, if specified, will be called with the result of every
        JSON object decoded and its return value will be used in place of the
        given :class:`dict`.  This can be used to provide custom
        deserializations (e.g. to support JSON-RPC class hinting).

        *object_pairs_hook* is an optional function that will be called with
        the result of any object literal decode with an ordered list of pairs.
        The return value of *object_pairs_hook* will be used instead of the
        :class:`dict`.  This feature can be used to implement custom decoders
        that rely on the order that the key and value pairs are decoded (for
        example, :func:`collections.OrderedDict` will remember the order of
        insertion). If *object_hook* is also defined, the *object_pairs_hook*
        takes priority.

        *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`).

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

        *allow_nan*, if True (default false), will allow the parser to
        accept the non-standard floats ``NaN``, ``Infinity``, and ``-Infinity``.

        *parse_constant*, if specified, will be
        called with one of the following strings: ``'-Infinity'``,
        ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``. It is not recommended to use this feature,
        as it is rare to parse non-compliant JSON containing these values.

        *strict* controls the parser's behavior when it encounters an
        invalid control character in a string. The default setting of
        ``True`` means that unescaped control characters are parse errors, if
        ``False`` then control characters will be allowed in strings.
