Load model from .json file
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Add functionality to load (or create) model from .json file. Should ideally be complemented with a corresponding "save model to .json file"
Describe the solution you'd like
A method to create a model object with complete functionality (up to gp.compute_model(model)-step) from a .json file. Important to save/load models, and as a more flexible input/ output feature (instead of multiple .csv files, corresponding python-scripts, etc.).
Describe alternatives you've considered Current state, which requires too many different files and is, therefore, error-prone.
Additional context XML formats would also be possible, but I believe .json is a good choice between flexibility and strictness (with enforced schemas).
See ongoing developments in https://github.com/flohorovicic/gempy/tree/feature/json_io
Current state: possible to load data (surface and orientation), model metadata, layer stack and regular grid from .json. Tests not complete, yet.
Full functionality for simple model (single structural group) completely implemented, including complete set of default values.
