D offers SumType struct to manage tagged Union types.

But there is no support for managing it's Json serialization/deserialization (using vibe.d)

Is it a way to add fromRepresentation and toRepresentation to SumType (or a way for creating a custom struct "inheriting" SumType with serialization capabilities)?

Thank you for advanced.

You can "inherit" from a struct using alias this:

struct CustomStruct
{
    SumType!(A, B, C) unwrap;
    alias unwrap this;

    // serialization stuff here
}
